RBD INVESTS IN CALIFORNIA OPERATIONS

ROSEMONT, IL – December 18, 2020. Reyes Beer Division (RBD) recently announced to its employees that they have big plans to invest in and expand its operations in Southern California. 

The nation’s largest beer distributor will be adding a new warehouse to its Gate City Beverage operations. The new +200,000 square foot distribution center will be located in Moreno Valley, California, and deliveries will begin out of this new facility in April 2021. 

In addition, the Company also signed a lease on a new facility to replace its current Harbor Distributing – Gardena warehouse. Effective Q4 2021, the Company will transition from its current 1970s +150,000 square foot Gardena warehouse to a brand new +290,000 square foot facility, just 2.2 miles away from today’s distribution center. 

This brings Reyes Beer Division’s total number of facilities in the state of California to 24. 

Both of these RBD companies again won workplace of choice awards this year. Gate City Beverage has been named a Top Workplace in the Inland Empire by Inland News Group and Harbor Distributing – Gardena ranked #21 in the Large Company category for the Los Angeles Business Journal Best Places to Work list. 

Tom Reyes, President of Reyes Beer Division West, said, “Through the hard work and dedication of our team, we have seen tremendous business growth and success. My family has always believed in reinvesting back into our business and people to provide improved resources for our employees, customers, partners and consumers. We are very fortunate to be in this position and we look forward to adding these new, state-of-the-art facilities to our operations in California.”
