Territory Focus Leverage a broad regional footprint in southeastern Minnesota, including Rochester and neighboring cities, to deepen retailer penetration across beer, wine, and spirits and target both on premise and off premise accounts for cross category growth.

Portfolio Expansion With beer and non alcoholic beverages already represented and wine plus spirits added, Schott offers retailers a one stop supplier enabling cross category promotions and larger basket sizes; pursue exclusive or preferred brand arrangements.

Local Service Advantage As a locally owned family run distributor dating back to 1955, Schott can win retailer loyalty through personalized service, in store merchandising, and tastings.

Data Driven A tech stack including AWS and analytics can support demand forecasting, route optimization, and marketing insights; opportunities exist to launch an online ordering portal and track promotions for retailers.

Strategic Partnerships The mid market scale presents opportunities to attract craft brands and regional producers for exclusive distribution, joint marketing funds, and growth beyond current category mix.
