Wine logistics for storage and distribution in the U.S. market

The shipping and customs clearance of wine and alcoholic beverages in the United States have their own specific requirements, just like distribution and sales. ExportUSA has selected a complete network of suppliers to ensure the importation and clearance of wine and alcoholic beverages in the U.S., as well as international shipping and logistics management across America.

ExportUSA provides a comprehensive service for wine and spirits producers looking to import and sell their products in the United States. Among our selected suppliers, we offer a temperature-controlled warehouse for wine storage and daily delivery to restaurants and retail stores in New York.

Tailored logistics for small to medium-sized wineries

The distribution and sale of wine and alcoholic beverages in the U.S. are subject to complex regulations that still reflect the historical influences of Prohibition-era restrictions.

Wine transportation and storage also have their own unique challenges. A transportation license is required to move wine. If the wine is being transported across multiple states, the transporter must have a separate wine transport license for each state involved in the delivery route. Similarly, a state-specific license is required to operate a wine storage facility in the U.S.

Finding the right warehouse and logistics provider for wine distribution in America is not easy. Beyond reliability, it's crucial to select a warehouse and logistics partner that aligns with the operational scale of the importing company. For example, if a winery imports one container of wine per month, partnering with a logistics provider that handles dozens of containers daily is not ideal—the pricing structure and level of attention will not meet expectations.
