Founded in 2002 with the simple goal of building our suppliers’ business and brands in the Ontario market place through dedication and focus.  Our professional team, headed by President  Brian Banyard seeks to maximize distribution and visibility at both the retail store level as well as the On-Premise.

 

Our focus is on appealing, well priced brands that deliver the maximum value to the consumer, restaurateur and the LCBO.  True value is far more important to our team than low price.  Our belief is that quality bears true value to the end-user.
