Our approach, to our business and yours, sets us apart.

Our core values make us who we are. As businesses change and grow, the beliefs that are most important to us stay the same - people first, pursue excellence in all we do, act with integrity, and serve one another with unwavering commitment.

We understand as our customer, you trust us as an extension of your own business. As vineyard owners, winemakers, coopers, confectioners, and others associated with specialty products, you have worked for many years developing your craft, refining your process, and building your brand. We understand, and build our relationships on a foundation of trust.

As Vintners Logistics celebrated their 16th anniversary last month, I reflect on the many years of experiences, education, and scars required prior to starting the business, and all the family effort to follow.

To those who don’t know, Shari and I have been together since birth - no kidding. I was born on May 24th and put in crib “B.” Approximately eight hours later, on May 25th, Shari was placed in crib “A” in the same room. It was love at first sight, and by 5th grade I had vowed to marry her. As one of my wildest successes, soon we will celebrate 36 years of marriage and have raised two sons together.

After 20 years of experience, and while working on my Master in Logistics from Michigan State University, I began my research on starting a logistics business to support the Washington Wine Industry. In September 2007, Shari and I went all in, and with a vow to do everything it would take to find our way, started Vintners Logistics. Looking back, I fondly recall a Christmas Eve the entire family was boxing chips for shipment before we celebrated the holiday; it always seems to be the small moments that stick with you. We have been lucky enough to find growth since that date, and while we have had countless conversations, late nights, and early mornings, the smiling customers and strong relationships have made the pain worth the gain.

While our work is never done, we have seen the reward of over 16 years in business, and recognition as the Northwest’s premier wine transportation company. Still, we remain, first and foremost, a generational family run business with our principals deeply rooted in all we do.

Wine will always be at our core, and without compromise to that commitment, we have leveraged our unwavering commitment to health, safety, and unparalleled process, to serve the dry food, beverage, confectionary, pharmaceutical, and related industries.

You can trust us to handle the logistics so you can focus on what you need to do to run your business.
