Chicago-based Lakeshore Beverage, a member of the Hand Family Companies, is well known as a premier beverage company in Chicago that has deep passion about beer, cider, spirits, and wine.

Splash Beverage also announced that one of the nation’s fastest growing pizza chains, Blaze Pizza, will carry Copa di Vino in nine locations across Southern California.
“We’re proud to announce all these agreements at the same time,” said Robert Nistico, Chief Executive Officer of Splash Beverage Group. “We’ve been hard at work over the past few months putting all these pieces into place, and as can be seen, Splash’s footprint has increased significantly with this announcement. This is exciting news as we continue to execute on our distribution and retail strategy. As I discussed a couple of months ago, we push for distribution, support those efforts with marketing, then start pushing again for more distribution coverage. We’re getting additional coverage through Southern California, the mountain states, Chicago, Mississippi, and Georgia.
