G&G Beverage Distributors, Inc. officially began business on December 9, 1980.

The first building was a small office and warehouse located in North Haven, Connecticut. In the beginning, we had 21 employees. As business increased and we incorporated more products, G&G opened a 61,500 square-foot facility. We now employ approximately 70 people in Wallingford, Connecticut. We are known as one of the region's foremost beverage distributorships.

 

The principal stockholders are Mark R. Gingras, President, Christine G. Gingras, Secretary/Treasurer and Margaux C. Gingras, Chief Operating Officer.

The Sales Department consists of a General Manager, Sales Manager, four Field Sales Managers, 20 Sales Representatives, three Merchandisers, a Draught Specialist and a Media Sign Specialist. Our marketing area includes New Haven, Fairfield, Hartford, Litchfield, Tolland, Windham, Middlesex and New London Counties, covering a population of 3.7 million people.

The corporation owns a modern facility at 207 Church Street in the Yalesville section of Wallingford, Connecticut. The building consists of 66,000 square feet with a 12,000-square-foot walk-in cooler. The entire facility is climate-controlled. 

We maintain 16 insulated side-loader trucks for delivery purposes, five light-delivery trucks for additional service and four vans for emergency service.

 

We maintain a 30- to 40-day inventory of packaged products and a 21-day inventory of draught product. We've implemented quality and fresh-product control programs for over 40 years.
