Vision Statement
TO BE THE BEST Sales and Marketing Distributorship.
Our history
Budco Distributing was founded in 1952. That year the company, with six employees, delivered 50,000 cases of Anheuser-Busch products throughout northeast Louisiana. Charles Marsala went to work in the warehouse for Budco Distributing in 1971. He eventually became a route salesman, a supervisor, and then ultimately became General Manager of the company. In 1992 Charles Marsala entered a limited partnership with Anheuser-Busch, Inc. to purchase the distributorship. In 2000 the remaining shares of Budco Distributing were purchased by Charles and Brenda Marsala, Damon Marsala and Mandy Marsala Pruitt.
Marsala Beverage is headquartered in Monroe, LA and has a branch warehouse in Ferriday, LA. We employ over 100 individuals that inventory, sell, deliver and market our brands to over 800 licensed retailers. Please see more in the what we do section of our website.
