| Distributing more than six million
cases* of beer each year, Pearlstine Distributors operates two climatically controlled
facilities to serve our seven-county area. Our Ridgeland, South Carolina center
serves southern county communities like Hilton Head, Beaufort, Hampton and Walterboro.
Our Charleston facility, completed in 2003, is located in the rapidly developing
Cainhoy Road corridor of Charleston’s East Cooper area. This location serves
the Charleston metro area and surrounding communities.

This new Charleston center is a spacious, state-of-the-art facility designed
for the expanding scope of Pearlstine Distributors operations. It includes a 1.5
acre beer warehouse, a drive-through loading area that’s larger than a NFL
football field, and enough state-of-the-art loading bays to handle a dozen semi-trailer
trucks at once.

Everything is designed for speed, safety and efficiency – the cornerstones
for quality distribution of products that are sensitive to time and temperature.
Massive insulated doors open with a wave of a hand. Colors and lighting promote
cleanliness and warehousing simplicity. Advanced electronics manage inventories
with up-to-the-second accuracy.

This center
is also designed for our company’s unique business
style. Combined dining and break facilities encourage
open interaction and idea-sharing between employees
at every level. Reception and hospitality facilities
present the company story and warmly welcome visitors
into our home. Windows bring the outside in, and areas
like the garden atrium and landscaped patios help encourage
the insiders to go out.
In every way, our facilities reflect the pride we feel in our company today,
and the expectations we have for our future.
