One of the most significant undertakings we’ve seen in the beverage business. With the buyout of RNDC - Reyes is setting up shop & poised to purchase existing beer distributors in states it had not previously done business. Maybe even your state. Stay tuned for what happens next…
Reyes Beverage Group just closed the largest acquisition in its 50-year history — and CEO Tom Day says the buying spree isn’t over. 🍺📦
With the purchase of 11 RNDC markets, Reyes becomes the No. 3 wine and spirits distributor in the U.S., adding 38 million cases, 600+ suppliers, 40,000 SKUs and $4 billion in revenue across 11 states and D.C. Day called the deal a “transformational shift,” positioning Reyes as a “total beverage provider” amid category convergence — and hinted it could soon climb even higher in the rankings. 🍷🥃
The company rebranded 1,800 trucks in 36 hours, acquired 31 buildings and onboarded more than 5,000 employees — all while signaling it’s actively shopping for more distributors in both beer and beyond.
