Alcohol Distribution Agreements (Hispanica International Delights Teardown)

Mike Whelan
Chief Community Officer

Alcohol distribution agreements are deceptively simple.

They appear like so many distribution agreements, but the compliance environment is so localized that you can really get yourself in a bind if you’re not careful.

In this episode of the Contract Teardown show, experienced alcohol compliance attorney Kristina Perry Alexander details the risks associated with these seemingly simple documents.

Alexander points out:

  • The specificity of state-level alcohol regulation,
  • The difficulty of choosing governing law jurisdictions,
  • Complexities around direct-to-consumer distribution, and
  • Signals that you should connect with experienced alcohol compliance counsel for your distribution agreement.
