Background

About Jake White

6 years of experience in both the distributor and supplier sides of the liquor industry. A total of 10 years in the world of professional sales. I worked for distributor Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits of Chicago, where I coordinated with retail chains to increase sales of Bacardi, Patron, Dewars, Bombay, Grey Goose, Cazadores, and Martini & Rossi. I worked in sales and brand management for Chicago-based supplier CH Distillery. In 2019, our CH team brought Jeppson’s Malort sales up 38% from 2018. We did this by direct sales, marketing, and hands-on promotion. I worked at Grimco Inc, where I managed dozens of brands and sold hundreds of products to the sign & graphics industry. I spent those years growing my range of skills in the business world and learning more about the art of sales. I’m currently working at Breakthu Beverage in Los Angeles, once again selling into the world of restaurants & bars. I sell wine, spirits, and beers, and manage product for over a hundred suppliers. I work in a fast-paced and dynamic market that requires me to stay on my toes and continue to be a student of the game.
