S3E8 Pricing In Distribution With Drekker Brewing

S3E8 Pricing In Distribution With Drekker Brewing

Author: Small Batch Standard October 11, 2021 Duration: 40:09
For the past 3 seasons we’ve covered the topic of distribution. Today we want to get a little more specific, and talk about pricing within distribution. The guest for this episode is Mark Bjornstad from Drekker Brewing out of Fargo, North Dakota. We talk about different scope of distribution philosophies, the concept of premium pricing, and Mark tells us why Drekker doesn’t see the process as selling beer to distributors. Enjoy!

Every week on The True Craft Podcast, hosts Chris Farmand and Katy Noel pull up a chair for the kind of frank talk you’d usually only get in a private office or after hours at a trade show. This isn’t about surface-level success stories. Instead, each episode features a genuine conversation with a craft business owner, digging into the real and often messy details of running an operation. You’ll hear about the specific hurdles they’ve faced, the unexpected opportunities they’ve seized, and the tough, daily decisions that define life as an entrepreneur in this hands-on world. Created by Small Batch Standard, the podcast serves as an essential resource for practitioners who want to move beyond theory and into the practical realities of management and growth. The discussions are grounded, insightful, and focused entirely on the experiences of people who are actually doing the work, making it a unique listen for anyone building a business with their own hands. Tune in for a dose of honesty and actionable perspective that cuts straight to the heart of what it means to be a craft owner today.
