National Wholesale Distribution
Sell to Distributors in All 50 US States
MHW Ltd. maintains all requisite federal and state licenses required to sell alcoholic beverages to authorized distributors or state alcohol beverage control boards in all 50 states in the U.S. and Washington D.C. Clients who work with MHW have a national platform to plug in with distributors across the country. MHW Ltd. handles all aspects of this process from accounting, regulatory compliance, logistics, and client service.
“I have worked with MHW since 1999 at various companies and have witnessed their growth and adaptability to commercially aide large or small companies’ needs. We have been working with MHW since 2018 at Altos Planos. Their market entry services were critical for our company to manage various routes to market depending on the state. MHW’s operational support and compliance work has allowed us to focus our energy and resources on growing our brands. They also offer global support which has aided our expansion into Europe. The sign of a good partner is a company that provides value during and post scalability. MHW is an excellent strategic alliance for entrepreneurial-level products to mature broad-market brands. Having worked with MHW in four different companies is the strongest endorsement that I can give any organization.”

Sell to 500+ Distributors
MHW Ltd. has sold to nearly every beverage alcohol distributor across the US and has existing billing and logistics infrastructure with each. We are widely known across the US beverage alcohol landscape as the pioneer of the national service model. Any wholesalers whom we have not sold to can be quickly set up in our system.
Accelerated Time to Market by Up to 6 Months
Working with MHW Ltd. as a national platform reduces time to market with each state distributor by an estimated 3 to 6 months, thanks to the existing distributor infrastructure, licenses, and regulatory expertise. The average time to market with MHW is 90 days.
50 Different Regulatory Systems
The U.S. alcohol market operates under 50 separate state regulatory frameworks. This means every state has its own licensing, reporting, and compliance requirements — which poses a logistical and legal challenge for brands who handle individually. MHW holds the compliance expertise to enable you to launch in any US market.
Save an Average 30-40% in Administrative Overhead
Brands that self-manage importation, compliance, and logistics can spend 30–40% more on administrative and legal costs compared to those using MHW Ltd.

How it Works:
MHW serves as the licensed distributor of record and handles state-by-state compliance and shipping logistics.

MHW is not a traditional distributor with a built-in field sales team, but rather a route-to-market platform that allows you to control your own marketing and sales.
