Fintech Welcomes New Strategic Partner, CStorePro

The CStorePro and Fintech integration will now allow independent gas station and convenience store (C-Store) operators across the US to not only make it easier to pay for their beer and other alcohol purchases but will also make it significantly easier for them to manage beer and alcohol margins and inventory.

These types of solutions were historically only available to large chain stores.  This partnership makes these advanced operational technologies readily available to single store owners.

"We are excited to partner with Fintech. Procurement of alcohol for resale and managing margins and inventory is a critical pain-point for independent gas station and convenience store owners. This partnership solves this by providing our customers the same advanced tools and technologies that the big chains have for a fraction of the cost." Stated Karen Quiroz, Account Manager at C-Store Pro. 

CStorePro helps gas station and convenience store owners manage their operations and finances by using powerful but easy to use mobile and big-data technologies. They integrate with all major point of sale and service providers to automate and optimize time consuming store management tasks and give the owners intuitive, actionable insights about critical matters on their smart phones. CStorePro is used by thousands of stores around the US.


The Rapid Revolution In Craft Distilling and What's Ahead in 2015

By Richard M Blau, Chair and GrayRobinson's Alcohol Industry Team
 
The craft distilled-spirits business is taking off all across America, spearheaded by special legislation by States such as California, Colorado, Florida, North Carolina, Texas and Washington State, leading  to much of the rest of the country’s  falling into line.
 
Looking ahead as the legislative sessions in many states begin, key issues likely to surface for small-production distillers include:

 Legal definitions of what constitutes a “craft” or “artisan” product: some of the  large spirits manufacturers are entering the market with products that are marketed as hand-crafted, artisan products. 

•  Additional tax relief for start-up distillers with micro-production levels: Small producers are receiving federal and (sometimes) state tax relief and are pushing for more.

•  Limited self-distribution: Small-production distillers remain determined to pursue legal rights to sell their products directly to retailers and/or consumers, bypassing  “three-tier” regulation on the grounds that,  when their products are relatively unknown in the marketplace and working capital is extremely scarce, they cannot readily attract distributors who will efficiently market their products.   

• Sunday sales: “Blue Law” prohibition on Sunday sales is an irrational holdover from a day-gone-by.  The entire beverage alcohol industry argues that the prohibition of Sunday alcohol sales acts as an economic anchor by eliminating 14% of the marketing calendar for all licensees; and the  craft producers argue that legal bans on Sunday sales eliminate a day when tourists visiting their facilities are prohibited from on site purchases otherwise legal in many jurisdictions.

Tin Whiskers Brewing Company is a microbrewery and taproom located in downtown Saint Paul, Minnesota. The brewery was founded in May 2014 by three electrical engineers who combined their skilled backgrounds and passion of great beer to come up with a truly unique brand. 

Tin Whiskers is a local, open source craft brewery on a mission to make technically excellent beer. Their goal is to engage and give back to the community by sharing an inside look at opening and operating a craft brewery. 

In addition to brewing, Tin Whiskers also self-distributes 1/2bbl and 1/6bbl kegs of their Wheatstone Bridge, Flipswitch IPA, Ampere Amber, and Short Circuit Stout to local bars and restaurants in the Twin Cities Area. 

The name ‘Tin Whiskers’ is defined as an electrical engineering term for a soldering failure that results in a short circuit on a printed circuit board (PCB). It is caused by a tin “hair” (or whisker) that unintentionally forms between adjacent pins of integrated circuits (ICs) which are the little black parts you'll see on a circuit board.

"Being a microbrewery that self distributes using Fintech has taken a huge load off my delivery driver with him not needing to wait around for a check which allows him to get more deliveries done in a day."

Jeff Moriarty - Tin Whiskers Brewing Company 
Superstition Meadery began in 2012 after a man who made craft beverages at home decided to write a business plan.

Their mission is to reintroduce the world’s oldest fermented beverage to the modern world. Superstition Meadery makes a wide variety of delicious meads and hard ciders in very small hand crafted batches.

The privately held company started as the first Alternating Proprietorship winery in the State of Arizona, with only four barrels to ferment and age their products in. Since then Superstition Meadery has grown its annual production capacity 1200 percent and is distributed throughout the State of Arizona.

Seven Superstition Meads are rated among the top 50 meads in the world on the most respected review site (ratebeer.com) and Superstition Meadery has won 4 medals in the largest commercial mead competition in the world, the Mazer Cup International.

"Superstition Meadery is growing, and has recently completed our first expansion. A supporting part of this growth is Fintech, whose data and payment processing function provided the company with the means to distribute their product to Whole Foods Market. Besides increasing sales, being a vendor for such a reputable organization lends an incredible amount of legitimacy to our brand.”

Jeff Herbert - Superstition Meadery
