Your dead stock is our buy list.
Allocated bottles gathering dust in the office, a whiskey program that changed direction, a closing you need to wind down cleanly. We buy sealed inventory in volume, business to business, with paperwork your accountant will actually like.
The four situations we hear from operators.
The allocation stash in the office
Every account gets offered bottles the bar never pours (Pappy, BTAC, store picks), and they pile up in the office as 'someday' inventory. That's capital sitting in a box. We turn it back into cash flow in about a week.
Dead stock on the top shelf
The dusty allocated bourbon nobody orders, the vertical you built for a whiskey program that changed direction. Sealed bottles only, quoted line by line, picked up from your list in one transaction.
Closing or changing concept
A closing is brutal enough without trying to retail out a spirits collection bottle by bottle. One itemized quote for the sealed premium stock, one shipment, one payment, while you deal with everything else.
Estate of a former owner
Settling a late partner's or owner's collection held at the business? That's part estate, part B2B. We handle both. See the estate liquidation guide, or just email us.
Two accountable businesses, one documented sale.
You run a real operation; so do we. The sale is a documented transaction between two accountable businesses, and the fiddly parts (state wrinkles, carrier rules, adult signature) are handled on our side. Everything moves on the prepaid, insured labels we issue, never on shipping you have to arrange.
Selling from a business has state-specific wrinkles. Tell us your state and setup when you reach out and we’ll tell you plainly what’s possible before anyone wastes time. Check us out first if you like: who you're dealing with is on the About page.
