Bacardi USA: “Best Large Spirits Supplier”

January 28, 2016

For the second year in a row, Bacardi U.S.A., Inc. was named “Best Large Spirits Supplier of the Year” at the 2016 VIBE Conference, the premier on-premise beverage alcohol conference in the country. The annual conference brings together the top chain operators, suppliers and associated vendors in the industry.

Every year, VIBE commissions a survey, run by the foodservice research and consulting firm, Technomic, Inc., to conduct the voting and to determine the industry’s best supplier team. The program is unique in that it invites beverage operators to rate spirits suppliers across a number of criteria including which company they view as the most professional and best at meeting their needs.
