Our Story
The Traditional model of Beverage Sales and distribution is inefficient and outdated.
In 2016, with over 20 years of beverage experience, Phil had the idea to create a company to help small, high quality brands finally be seen by retailers. So he created Edge Beverage Consulting, a company designed to help small business at an affordable rate using fractional Services. In 2019, Phil partnered with James Williams to help take Edge Beverage to the next level. Together as Founders, they are proud of what they have built and the brands they have partnered with.
Now, Edge Beverage is the #1 beverage consulting firm in the country. Our success comes from a fractional services model, which allows small and mid-sized beverage brands to work with Retail Account Executives and employ sales teams within a reasonable pricing model. We have an Executive team dedicated to assist you in markets across the country. While many brands are seeing difficulty selling into accounts industry-wide, Edge has helped hundreds of brands find success. NO ONE does what we do at the scale that we do it.
Our Approach
Our approach at Edge Beverage is all about connecting small and medium-sized brands with retailers and distributors nationwide. We are committed to always providing high-quality and affordable sales and distribution services to our clients. Our extensive connections with buyers and distributors allow us to open doors for brands that might have been overlooked or ignored in the past. We are dedicated to helping our clients succeed by providing them with access to the resources and connections that they need to grow their business.
Fractional Services
Edge was one of the first companies to ever use Fractional Services as a way to same clients money and provide maximum services. With our fractional services model you are saving substantial money by hiring our team of Industry experts to take over your sales team as compared to hiring yourself. For many small and medium size brands, that is very costly. Here is a Price Comparison Case Study that illustrates how Fractional Services is an affordable option for most brands.
