ABOUT

INDUSTRY SPIRITS

MANIFESTO:
Industry Spirits will always be a family, and we take a stand for our family and our industry. We have been created by being part of our bar family and all that our industry represents: Honor, integrity, diversity, hard work, trust and genuinely building a future as leaders to create and a safe place built on mutual trust for all around us.

For years the big brands have owned our wells. It’s long-since time that a group of bartenders who care about and are committed to our community and in giving back to our community created a new well option, one that provides assistance to our community.

Industry Spirits is a quality brand that bars and restaurants can be proud to use in their well. A brand that, unlike the big corporate brands, genuinely cares about our community.

A portion of every purchase will be saved in an account for the communities where Industry Spirits is sold. That money will be spent on educational or service to our community, with the council of the community at large.

Started in Seattle, WA, Industry Spirits has partnered with RNDC, and will be adding markets nationwide as fast as we can.
