Constellation Brands, a US-based beverage alcohol producer, has inked new distribution agreements with Republic National Distributing Company (RNDC).
These agreements, which are an extension of the existing partnership between the two companies, will take effect in March 2015.
As per the agreed terms, RNDC will distribute Constellation's portfolio of wines and spirits for over a period of five years.
The products will be distributed across Colorado, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland, Nebraska, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas and the District of Columbia.
Commenting on the agreements, Constellation Brands president and chief executive officer Rob Sands said that the company is thrilled to extend its relationship with RNDC to continue harnessing the power of its full portfolio into the marketplace and look forward to continued success together.
RNDC president Tom Cole said, "The opportunity to continue to be Constellation's preferred distributor and broker in these nine key markets across the U.S., in addition to the other 10 markets where Constellation and RNDC do business together, further aligns our priorities, incentives, and commitment to bringing these dynamic brands to market. Likewise, we are thrilled to extend our relationship with Constellation."
Meanwhile, the current agreements in North and South Dakota, which began in 2012, will continue for their full, five-year term, the company claims.
