Overview
Allied Beverage Group distributes wine, spirits and related products to licensed liquor stores, restaurants, hotels, taverns and clubs across New Jersey. It carries the product lines of many of the world's major beverage alcohol suppliers. Licensed businesses open credit accounts and buy through its sales representatives, while suppliers book sampling and promotion programs to build demand with those accounts. The family-owned company grew from mergers of several New Jersey distributors and runs a distribution facility in Elizabeth and a cross-dock site in Swedesboro. Its predecessors date to the end of Prohibition in 1933, and it is headquartered in Elizabeth, New Jersey.
