Business Description
Turn Key
Unique opportunity to acquire an established craft distillery, tasting room, and spirits brand in Manchester, New Hampshire.

Founded with the goal of building a distinctive New England spirits company, the business has developed a portfolio of branded spirits, an operating production facility, an attractive tasting-room experience, and an established presence within the New Hampshire market.

The distillery currently produces and markets vodka, gin, bourbon whiskey, and specialty liqueur products, with room for substantial expansion of both the product portfolio and geographic distribution.

This is an opportunity for an entrepreneur, beverage-industry operator, existing distillery, distributor, or strategic buyer to acquire the infrastructure and brand foundation without starting a distillery from scratch.

Highlights:
-Operating craft distillery with established production infrastructure
-Attractive tasting room and customer experience
-Portfolio of developed and market-tested spirits brands
-Existing New Hampshire retail and on-premise presence
-Established relationships within the local hospitality and beverage ecosystem
-Experienced production capability and operating processes
-Opportunity to expand wholesale distribution throughout New England and beyond

Growth Opportunity
The business has built much of the difficult foundation required to operate in the highly regulated spirits industry. A new owner can focus on accelerating commercial growth rather than building the operation from zero.

Potential opportunities include:
Expanding New Hampshire on-premise accounts
Increasing penetration within state liquor outlets
Expanding distribution into neighboring New England states
Building a stronger regional sales organization
Increasing tasting-room programming and private events
Developing corporate and hospitality partnerships
Expanding cocktail-menu placements
Launching additional spirits and limited releases
Growing e-commerce and merchandise where permitted
Building regional and eventually national awareness around the existing brands
The business may be particularly attractive to a buyer with established beverage sales or distribution expertise who can leverage the existing production and brand platform.

Facilities
The distillery operates from a distinctive Manchester location associated with the historic Factory on Willow campus.
The facility includes production capability as well as a customer-facing tasting room, allowing the business to combine manufacturing, brand building, product education, events, and direct customer engagement in one operation.
Real estate is not included in the sale. Appropriate occupancy arrangements can be negotiated as part of the transaction.

Reason for Sale
Owner is an entrepreneur and investor with multiple operating businesses and investments and is seeking the right buyer to take the distillery into its next stage of growth.
The business has reached a point where its greatest opportunity is commercial expansion, particularly through dedicated sales leadership and broader distribution.

Ideal Buyer
This opportunity could be particularly compelling for:
-An entrepreneur seeking an established craft beverage company
-An experienced spirits or beverage sales executive
-An existing distillery seeking additional brands or production capability
-A regional beverage company looking to enter the craft spirits category
-A strategic buyer seeking an established New Hampshire presence
-An operator capable of expanding distribution throughout New England

Transaction
Seller is open to discussing transaction structure with qualified buyers.
Detailed financial information, production information, licensing information, inventory, equipment schedules, and other confidential materials will be made available to serious prospective buyers following execution of a confidentiality agreement.

Facilities & Assets
The sale includes the distillery’s production and tasting-room assets, including stills, fermentation and storage tanks, bottling and labeling equipment, pumps, filtration equipment, barrels, production accessories, furnishings, and fixtures. Also included are the business’s brands, trademarks, intellectual property, and applicable licenses and permits, subject to transferability and regulatory approval. The facility provides dedicated production, storage, and customer-facing tasting-room areas. Real estate is not included; lease terms will be negotiated separately. Finished goods, raw materials, packaging, and other inventory are excluded from the asking price and will be valued and negotiated with the buyer before closing.
Opportunities for Growth
Significant growth opportunities exist through expanded sales, distribution, and customer engagement. A buyer could increase placement within New Hampshire liquor outlets, restaurants, bars, and hospitality venues while pursuing distribution throughout New England and beyond. Additional opportunities include expanding tasting-room hours and programming, hosting private events, developing strategic hospitality partnerships, increasing cocktail-menu placements, and strengthening direct-to-consumer marketing. The established production platform also supports new product development, seasonal or limited releases, contract distilling, private-label production, merchandise sales, and broader regional brand awareness. A buyer with beverage sales or distribution experience could accelerate growth using the existing infrastructure and brand portfolio.
