A Note From The Executive Director
WELCOME TO THE 2021-2022
ISBT BEVERAGE INDUSTRY RESOURCE GUIDE
T
he most important thing that an association can provide to its members is the ability to connect with other industry professionals to share ideas, talk about issues and develop solutions. The ISBT Beverage Industry Resource Guide is designed to help facilitate just that. The print guide and its online companion, guide.isbt.com, was conceived as a way for our members to learn about companies affiliated with the beverage industry. A simple to use, searchable database, the Resource Guide is a members-only benefit that provides a wealth of important and practical information about our ISBT member companies. This year, the Resource Guide has grown considerably over our first edition, which was published in 2020. We are very excited to now feature more than 250 soft drink brands, 60 regional bottling companies, 20 consulting firms and more than 350 supplier members segmented by business category. We worked with our publishing partners, Data Key Communications, to make the print and online Resource Guide a one-stop resource for the beverage industry. Supplier members are able to create content inside of their company listings. They can also publish articles that can help a beverage company improve efficiency, profitability, and/or safety of their operations. The ISBT has thrived since 1953 in large part due to its partnerships with the best distributors and suppliers in the beverage industry. This Resource Guide aims to enhance communication among members, to make sure all members have the latest possible information, and to provide you with the utmost value for your membership. The Resource Guide is an excellent resource to enhance your business and improve and facilitate your relationships throughout the year. It contains relevant contact information and product data for every ISBT manufacturer, supplier and service provider who has chosen to participate. To make the directory as easy and convenient to use as possible, the information has been sorted by company name and product category.
