🍷 Wine distribution in California just got a whole lot smarter.
At LibDib, we’ve always believed that modern wineries deserve modern solutions. That’s why we’re excited to roll out a new Hybrid Distribution Model—built specifically for today’s wine brands that want flexibility, transparency, and full control over their path to market.
This isn’t your typical one-size-fits-all distribution model. It’s à la carte distribution designed for how wineries operate now—and how they want to grow.
What is Hybrid Distribution?
LibDib’s Hybrid Model blends the best of full-service distribution with the freedom to manage your own sales. That means:
- You control the relationships with your accounts (or bring your own rep!)
- LibDib handles all three-tier compliance, invoicing, payments, and reporting
- Access to warehousing, delivery, and merchandising only if and when you need it
- Live sales tracking, buyer insights, and inventory visibility via LibDib’s tech-forward platform
Whether you're just getting started or scaling across the state, this model works on your terms.
Why It Works for California Wineries
âś… Flexible Services
Use what you need—compliance, delivery, inventory, sales support—when you need it. Pay only for what you use.
âś… Bring Your Own Rep
Do you have a rep selling for you already? No problem. We plug into your existing sales structure, giving you full operational support behind the scenes.
âś… Tech-Powered Transparency
Real-time sales and inventory data lets you make informed decisions fast. You’ll know exactly what’s happening with your brand, when and where.
âś… Statewide Reach, No Friction
From chain authorizations to sampling support, we help you reach Buyers across California—with no traditional distributor gatekeeping.
đźšš Seamless Operations, Flexible Shipping
Distribution with LibDib fits the way you already operate:
- Independent account orders can ship flexibly—from your winery or a LibDib warehouse—based on your needs.
- Chain and national account orders are delivered via familiar trucks and drivers already servicing those Buyers, ensuring smooth, professional delivery.
- And the best part? Our markups are very competitive for both fulfillment models, giving you pricing power and protecting your margins.
- We offer warehousing and statewide fulfillment as needed, so design the operations structure that works for you.
