Why Alcohol Brands Choose MPIO

Alcohol Logistics Can’t Afford a Standard 3PL

Licensing, breakage risk, and retailer compliance don’t leave room for guesswork.

Working With A Standard 3PL
  • No ABC license for alcohol storage
  • Breakage-prone handling
  • Manual, error-prone lot tracking
  • No Costco or major-retailer compliance history
  • Compliance gaps that delay or kill retail onboarding
With MPIO
  • Active ABC Type-14 license for wine, beer & spirits
  • Breakage-conscious handling built into every pick
  • Lot-level tracking on every SKU, every shipment
  • Costco-compliant distribution center
  • Retailer-ready documentation from day one

Logistics built for regulated products and careful handling, not general storage.

Track Record

30+ Years In Operation

A Los Angeles-based 3PL operating since the 1980s, 10 miles from the Port of Long Beach.

A Licensed Facility Isn’t a Claim Here. It’s a Certification.

The ABC Type-14 license, GMP certification, and FDA registration aren’t marketing badges. They’re independently audited standards for sanitation, handling, and licensed storage that most 3PLs never bother to earn. When a facility holds all of them at once, it tells you something about how the whole operation is run, not just the paperwork behind it.

That’s the difference alcohol brands notice when they move to MPIO: fewer errors, fewer breakages, and product handled the way you’d handle it yourself.

By Category

Built for Every Alcohol Category

Every category has its own handling requirements. Here’s how MPIO’s certifications apply to each:

Wine Importers & Distributors

Licensed Storage, Breakage-Conscious Handling

Our ABC Type-14 license lets wine importers and distributors consolidate storage, fulfillment, and compliant distribution with one partner, with handling built around bottle integrity.

Craft Beer & Breweries

Licensed Warehousing at Scale

Licensed storage and fulfillment for craft and independent breweries scaling distribution beyond their own taproom or a single distributor relationship.

Spirits & Distilleries

GMP-Certified, Audit-Ready Traceability

Lot-level tracking by batch number, built so that when a retailer or the ABC asks where a lot shipped, the answer is immediate and documented.

How Orders Move Through MPIO

Built Around Licensed, Careful Handling

From receiving to final delivery, every step is built around licensing, breakage risk, and documentation.

Inbound Receiving

Licensed intake with lot and batch number captured at receipt, and inspection standards for breakage risk.

Licensed Storage

ABC Type-14 licensed storage for wine, beer, and spirits, with lot control and system-based accuracy tracking.

Order Fulfillment

Outbound Shipping

Carrier coordination that accounts for breakage risk, plus compliant documentation before anything leaves the dock.

Visibility & Control

Audit-Ready Traceability, Not Just Inventory Counts

Documentation and recordkeeping to support ABC and FDA audit requirements
Exception alerts and status updates across the fulfillment cycle
