A Capital-Efficient Market Entry Platform
Stateside handles import compliance, centralized warehousing, and managed multi-state distribution — built to keep your monthly costs predictable while you build your brand.
Start a ConversationWhy It Matters
In a 9-month period, a small spirits brand paid out over 60 cents of every dollar earned in platform, warehousing, and distribution fees to a national pay-to-play operator. The fee structure at large platform operators is designed around their economics, not yours.
Stateside was built to close that gap. Lower fixed fees. No warehouse markups. Month-to-month.
What We Do
One partner for the entire chain. We act as your importer of record, store your product in our centralized warehouse, and distribute to retailers across the country through a managed wholesale network.
Federal and state regulatory filings, COLA applications, label reviews, and importer of record services. We handle every step so you can focus on your brand, not the paperwork.
Your product is stored in our own centralized warehouse in Northern Virginia. Not a third-party facility with middleman markups. Transparent, flat-rate storage with a single chain of custody from receipt to release.
We manage your brand under our master account across a wholesale network reaching 11 markets. You do not set up or manage your own distributor accounts. We handle it end-to-end.
How It Works
We built the process to be clear because the industry made it unnecessarily opaque.
01
We review your brand, register your SKUs with federal and state authorities, and set up your compliance infrastructure. You retain full ownership of your product throughout.
02
We coordinate freight and customs clearance as your importer of record. Your product arrives at our Virginia warehouse with every compliance requirement already handled.
03
Inventory is received, inspected, and stored at our Northern Virginia facility. One point of custody, one team accountable, one invoice. No third-party warehouse introducing cost or uncertainty.
04
Your brand is listed in our managed wholesale network, accessible to licensed retailers across 11 markets. Orders ship within 48 hours. We manage the distribution operations so you can focus on building demand.
Why Stateside
We operated as clients of the major pay-to-play operators. We know what the invoices look like. We built something different.
