Benefits of DTC Alcohol Shipping
There’s a growing market for alcohol delivery services, ranging from local craft beer enthusiasts to wine lovers.
In order to meet these demands, DTC allows craft beverage producers to have more control over the customer experience. Take advantage of another revenue stream by selling your products directly to customers through online platforms, subscription services, and other channels—bypassing traditional retail networks. By eliminating the middleman, you can offer your products at more competitive prices while maintaining higher profit margins.

Who Needs DTC Shipping?
Want in? Here’s who we provide DTC shipping services for:
Breweries
While the three-tier system of alcohol distribution limits DTC beer shipping, a handful of states including Ohio and Oregon permit breweries to go direct. This opens new revenue streams and consumer bases, limited only by geography.
Cideries
Regulations around cider classification vary per state; it could be classified as beer, wine, or something else entirely. Despite this, DTC shipping for cideries offers a chance to reach their consumer base directly by taking advantage of their unique classification.
Wineries
DTC shipping for wine is allowed in 47 states, meaning wineries should look to capitalize on this expansion opportunity. Do that some states like Mississippi remain a no-go, so due diligence is still essential.
Distilleries
Distilleries may have the tightest restrictions on DTC shipping, but Alaska, Kentucky, and five other states have already offered some leeway for DTC shipments. These limited opportunities could be the gateway to more extensive market penetration.
