Anyone looking to purchase beverages, whether retail or wholesale, should look no further than United Beverage Distributors, located at 4517 Glenwood Road.
This family-owned enterprise, known to many as the “No. 1” wholesale and retail beverage distributor in Brooklyn, has everything needed for any occasion and is the go-to distributor for many local bodegas, restaurants, bars, mom-and-pop shops, catering halls and other venues.
While offering some of the lowest prices in Brooklyn, United Beverage Distributors sells a variety of wine, energy drinks, sodas and juices, a range guaranteed to satiate even the most finicky palate.
It also specializes in a full line of products from the Caribbean. The store’s proximity to cultural communities like Little Haiti and Little Caribbean makes it the place to visit for those nostalgic “back home” quenchers like Shandy, Peardrax, Angostura Chill, Mauby and Cola Lacaye, to name just a few.
In addition, United Beverage Distributors offers an incredible assortment of high-quality international classics, like Prestige Lager Beer, brewed in Holland but known as the “pride of Haiti” because it originated there; Cerveza Imperial Beer from Costa Rica; Sapporo Premium Beer from Tokyo and Hefe-Weizen, a German Wheat Beer.
Lisa Lonuzzi grew up working in the family-owned business alongside her dad and siblings. She told the Canarsie Courier that as one of its current proprietors, she was pleased to carry on the family tradition and was proud that United Beverage is woman-owned.
