Step 1

Decide if Wholesale Alcoholic Beverages is the right industry to target

The Wholesale Alcoholic Beverages industry

Wholesale Alcoholic Beverages refers to businesses that distribute beer, ale, wine, and distilled spirits in large quantities. These businesses act as a link between the beverage producers (breweries, wineries, distilleries) and the retailers, restaurants, or bars that sell them to consumers.

What businesses are included

An example of a business in this industry is a company that buys wine in bulk from vineyards and sells it to liquor stores or restaurants. Another example would be a distributor that purchases craft beer from various microbreweries and supplies it to bars and pubs.

When targeting the Wholesale Alcoholic Beverages industry on LinkedIn, your search will automatically cover all related sub-industries. To maximize the relevance of your leads, you may want to exclude certain sub-industries that don’t align with your ideal customer profile.

Which businesses are not included

It's crucial to distinguish between wholesale and retail in this category. A liquor store selling directly to consumers is a retailer, not a wholesaler. Similarly, a brewery that sells its beer directly to consumers through its own taproom is not considered part of the wholesale alcoholic beverages industry.
