Hi guys,
When we first started operations, we worked out an arrangement with our distributor for them to pick up our packaged beer at the brewery for a small fee, which let me avoid having to buy or lease a delivery truck. Now our volume is up to where I could lease a truck of our own and actually save a little money versus continuing to pay our distributor to come get it. Even including fuel and insurance, it's a break-even thing right now, and will save us money as we grow.
But I'm wondering what other issues I am overlooking? Has anyone else out there been in this situation?
Cheers,
Linus Hall
