Please take the time to review all of these policies and procedures!
In the effort to build our In-Market Sampling Program, we have officially partnered up with Sunflower Group Agency and Promo Works. Since we have these partnerships, we are now able to conduct samplings in ALL Food Lions and Harris Teeters! While we have been very active in Harris Teeters over the past 3 years, it is only recently that we have been selected to be one of the only third party agencies to provide chain-wide sampling services, building on our success that we have achieved for our partners, wholesalers and breweries. Over the coming months, we will be working very closely with Promo Works & Sunflower Group. These partnerships will allow us to sample even more often in new territories for new, different and existing brands.
With all this being said, our All About Beer Sampling Procedures (rescheduling) will be changed to make sure we are in line with those of these partnered agencies. Going forward, all Beer Explorers will be required to follow these procedures exactly.
