Blue Hound Brew Scales Up: New Distribution Partnership with Best Brands Inc.
The Tennessee coffee scene just got a major jolt. Blue Hound Brew, the Nashville-based powerhouse known for its premium canned lattes, has officially announced a strategic distribution partnership with Best Brands Inc. This move marks a massive milestone for the brand, transitioning from a beloved local craft favorite to a statewide staple. By joining forces with one of Tennessee’s oldest and most respected distributors, Blue Hound Brew is set to bring its "clean-label" coffee revolution to every corner of the Volunteer State.
Why This Partnership Matters
Since its launch, Blue Hound Brew has been on a tear. The mission was simple: create a canned latte that doesn't sacrifice quality for convenience. No artificial sweeteners, no preservatives—just specialty-grade cold brew and real ingredients.
However, scaling a premium product requires serious logistics. That’s where Best Brands Inc. comes in:
-
Historic Reach: Operating since the 1930s, Best Brands is a multi-generational powerhouse with deep roots in Nashville, Memphis, Knoxville, and Chattanooga.
-
Infrastructure: Their sophisticated temperature-controlled warehousing ensures that every can of Blue Hound Brew stays as fresh as the day it was brewed.
-
Statewide Visibility: This partnership moves Blue Hound Brew beyond specialty boutiques and into major retail stores, bars, and restaurants across all of Tennessee.
A Shared Tennessee Legacy
"We started Blue Hound Brew in the local markets of Middle Tennessee, serving lattes from a dream," says the founding team. "Partnering with a titan like Best Brands Inc. allows us to stay true to our Nashville roots while finally meeting the massive demand we’ve seen across the state."
For Best Brands, adding Blue Hound Brew to their portfolio reinforces their commitment to high-quality, local craftsmanship—recognizing that Tennessee consumers are increasingly looking for premium, "grab-and-go" options that carry the same craft pedigree as a fine wine or spirit.
