Spirits Industry Ramps Up Effort to Allow Direct-to-Consumer Shipping

Beverage Industry News» Legislative & Regulatoryposted Mar 29th, 2022 by Tom McCormick

The American Craft Spirits Association (ACSA), American Distilling Institute (ADI) and Distilled Spirits Council of the United States (DISCUS), three trade associations representing distillers large and small, joined forces to launch “Ship My Spirits,” a coalition with the goal of modernizing the spirits marketplace by allowing direct-to-consumer shipping of distilled spirits, specifically targeting New York state where the New York legislature is currently considering two bills, S4245-A/A3275-A and S556/A2513 which would permanently allow distillers to ship their spirits products directly to adult consumers.

ShipMySpirits.Org, the coalition’s website, has an interactive map where consumers can click on their state to learn about the laws regulating spirits shipments and other data related to the spirit industry’s impact in the state. For example, the site notes that the spirits industry supports 94,000 jobs in New York and has an economic impact of more than $8.5 billion.

“Consumers want distilled spirits shipped straight from the distillery to their doorbell, and that’s the goal of the ‘Ship My Spirits’ campaign,” said Chris Swonger, president and CEO of DISCUS. “The DTC law in New York needs to be modernized to increase consumer choice, build small businesses and tourism, and create an on-ramp to distribution for new products. Allowing distillers, large and small, to direct ship supports consumers, producers, wholesalers and retailers which continues our support of the three-tier system.”
