Success Story

Long Road Distillers

In 2023, Grand Rapids-based Long Road Distillers wanted to optimize the efficiency and quality of its ingredients supply chain for its distilling operations. That March, they participated in the Michigan Distilling Grain Summit, an event co-hosted by the PMBC team, Michigan Craft Beverage Council, and the Michigan State University Extension. At the event, Long Road Distillers was able to secure a new supply chain relationship. Learn how the connection positioned Long Road Distillers for production expansion.
