Stone Fence Beverage

What Stone Fence Beverage does

Stone Fence Beverage is a privately held craft spirit broker and distributor headquartered in Manchester, New Hampshire, founded in 2016. The company represents and distributes a curated portfolio of wine and spirit brands to thousands of retail and hospitality accounts across three Northern New England control states: Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. As a broker operating within state-controlled spirits markets, the company leverages specialized knowledge of agency-store distribution mechanics in markets where prices are set at the state level.

The company's portfolio spans more than a dozen spirit categories, including mezcals (Granja Nómada, La Venenosa, Fidencio), bourbon and rye whiskeys (Molon Labe, Lost Lantern, 10th Mountain), tequilas and agave spirits (G4, Arette, 1921), craft gins, rums, vodkas, liqueurs, ready-to-drink cocktails, a non-alcoholic whiskey alternative (Cut Above), and wines distributed through the Provi platform (Crush Distributors). Brand breadth and category coverage are used as the primary lever to differentiate against competing brokers.

Stone Fence Beverage generates revenue via transaction-based brokerage fees on products moved through its distribution network, serving restaurants, wine stores, and hospitality accounts. The company employs 14 people, operates without disclosed external funding, and distributes through direct sales to accounts, the Provi e-commerce platform, and social media engagement. Geographic expansion signals include category diversification (non-alcoholic, RTDs) and platform-enabled ordering, though financial scale and growth metrics are not publicly disclosed.

Broad incumbents

• Martignetti Companies: Large New England-based wine and spirits wholesaler covering Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and surrounding states; serves similar on- and off-premise accounts with a broader portfolio, representing the regional incumbent model.
• Southern Glazer's Wine & Spirits: Largest U.S. wine and spirits distributor; competes for premium on-premise and retail accounts nationally, including New England, and serves as a consolidator that could acquire specialty brokers like Stone Fence.
• Kobrand Corporation: Mid-sized importer and marketer of premium wine and spirits brands; overlaps with Stone Fence in the premium spirits category and on-premise account relationships, with broader national reach.
• Winebow: Multi-regional wine and spirits importer and distributor with a strong specialty/craft focus; comparable to Stone Fence's curated portfolio approach but operating across multiple U.S. regions at greater scale.
• Horizon Beverage: Regional New England alcoholic beverage distributor with a broad wine and spirits portfolio; overlaps with Stone Fence's Northern New England account base but at much greater scale and broader category mix.
• RNDC (Republic National Distributing Company): One of the largest U.S. alcoholic beverage distributors; competes with Stone Fence for on- and off-premise accounts in any overlapping geographies and represents the large-scale broad-line alternative to a specialty craft broker.
