Ask an Orlando wholesaler where it delivers and it will tell you Central Florida. Twelve of the twenty-six below use that exact phrase, and two of them independently put the same number on it: fifteen counties. That region has no government, no boundary you can look up and no relationship to the four counties of the Orlando metro, and it is the unit this entire trade is organized around.
Filter by what they carry, how the business is set up, who they sell to, how you can buy, and where they are. 21 of 26 publish a phone number and 22 publish a street address; where a company does not, the field is left out rather than filled in.

Central Florida is not a county, a metro or an administrative anything. It is a phrase, and it is the phrase twelve of these twenty-six suppliers use when asked where they go. Exactly one names actual counties, one gives a mileage radius, and one names the city.
Two unrelated companies put the same number on it. Florida Distributing Company says it sells across fifteen counties in Central Florida. Coca-Cola Beverages Florida says its Orlando distribution center serves approximately fifteen counties, and lists the corners as Ocala, Daytona, Brevard and Fort Pierce. Neither of those is a legal territory. They are two companies independently describing the same economic region at the same scale.
For a buyer that is genuinely useful. It means a supplier ninety minutes away is probably still inside its own idea of local, which is not true in most of the cities this directory covers. It also means the published delivery area tells you less than usual, so the question worth asking is not whether they cover Central Florida but which day they reach your street.
A blank cell means the company does not list that line on its own site, not that it cannot get it. Most of these houses will source outside their published range for an account they want. Columns showing only one supplier are hidden to keep the grid readable.
The Florida Beer Wholesalers Association publishes a map of its members: twenty wholesalers at twenty-seven addresses across the state. Four of those addresses sit in metro Orlando, and they belong to three companies. City Beverages in Orlando, Florida Distributing Company in Orlando and Kissimmee, and Wayne Densch in Sanford.
Read that against Florida Statutes section 563.021 and it stops being a market-share observation. That statute forbids a distributor from selling or delivering a brand of malt beverage to a retailer outside its filed exclusive territory. So for a given beer brand at a given Orlando address, you do not choose a wholesaler. One is assigned to you, and the other two may not lawfully deliver it.
This is the part of the page where this site's standing advice stops working. We tell operators everywhere to keep a second supplier on at least one line, because a second quote is the only reliable way to know the first is fair. On beer in this metro there is nothing to compare. On the other nineteen suppliers here, coffee and water and soft drinks and syrups, nobody assigns anything and the advice applies normally.
| Supplier type | Catalog | Cutting | Minimum | Delivery | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Local specialist15 here | Narrow, protein only | Cuts to your specification | Usually negotiable | Scheduled, local routes | Menus where the cut is the dish |
| Regional distributor5 here | Broader, may run past protein | Some, varies by house | Set per account | Multi-state or multi-market | Groups wanting fewer accounts |
| Cash and carry1 here | Whatever is in the case | Cut to order at the counter | None, you collect | None | Small volume and mid-week gaps |
| National broadline5 here | Everything, one invoice | Portion programs, fixed specs | Drop-size driven | Fixed schedule, wide coverage | Consolidating staples and dry goods |
The count column is computed from the listings above. The rest describes how each business model typically works, not a term any individual company has published. Minimums and delivery days are always set per account, so treat this as a shortlist tool, not a quote.
Chicago has the stockyards, shut in 1971. Baltimore has a fish market that closed on a dated afternoon in January 1984. Los Angeles has a bottling plant that stopped in June 2025. The interesting building in the Orlando beverage trade opened on 17 June 2026 and cost eighty-four million dollars.
Coca-Cola Beverages Florida's Orlando distribution center sits on a five-acre site at 3095 Eunice Avenue: 180,000 square feet, twenty-nine inbound and outbound docks, and about thirty-four million cases a year by the company's own account. It employs nearly a thousand people across Central Florida. For a directory that usually explains a city's supply base by what it used to be, Orlando is the one that has to be explained by what it is building.
That shapes what you should expect as a buyer. A trade adding capacity is a trade with room for your account, and the pattern in the listings agrees: eighteen of these twenty-six operate from a single Orlando-area address and nowhere else. We tested the obvious theory that this is a branch town for companies headquartered elsewhere, and the data does not support it.
The unlicensed half of this page is mostly coffee, and it is young. Of the roasters whose dates we could verify, one dates to 1998, one to 2006, one to 2010, one to 2012 and one to 2016. One describes its own journey from a garage to a commercial roastery. There is no hundred-year-old roasting house here of the kind Baltimore and New York both have.
Operators in this city say so themselves, and we have left the comment on the page rather than smoothing it over: one describes slim pickings for reputable third wave roasters locally and says they order from a roaster in Tampa instead. A directory that only printed the flattering version would be less useful than one that prints both.
One caution about reading these companies' own words. Two Orlando roasters a block apart publish near-identical wholesale pages, down to the same four answers and the same paragraph about equipment. We are not suggesting anything about how that happened, and the captures would not support it if we did. It matters only because it means a sentence from either page characterizes neither company, so do not weigh it.
Counted from the 26 listings above. Change the view, then narrow by supplier type to see how the mix shifts.
26 suppliers in view. Bars count suppliers carrying each product line, so they add up to more than 26: most suppliers carry several.
Twenty-three of the twenty-six publish a street address and twenty publish a phone number. Three asserted absences in the research turned out to be wrong when we opened the captures rather than trusting the extraction: one company publishes a phone with spaces around the dash, one publishes an address split across two lines, and one publishes an address under a bare heading. All three are on the page because somebody looked.
Two companies were dropped after reading. One is a roaster whose own captures name no city at all, whose contact page returns an error and whose only news coverage has gone; Reddit says where it is, and Reddit is not a source for an address. The other publishes an Orlando address that turns out to belong to a different division of the same parent, which makes it a lead for a future meat page rather than a beverage row.
The licensed and unlicensed tiers are marked on every row because the difference decides what you can do. Seven suppliers name alcohol in their own copy, plus a cash-and-carry warehouse that carries wine and spirits at two of its three metro branches. The other nineteen sell things anybody may buy.

24 comments quoted verbatim from public threads, researched specifically for this city rather than reused from elsewhere on the site.
Fountain drinks have some of the, if not the highest profit margins in food and beverage. I think it works out to like 25 cents a cup of soda at cost without the cup. With the cup probably closer to a dollar.Read the original comment
The thing to remember about the freestyle cup, is you have to still purchase the refill package each day. The initial purchase is $15.99 each cup if you buy two cups, which would be $31.98. That covers day one. Then days 2-4 are going to be $10.99 each cup, each day. That is $21.98 each day for two cups, which is $65.94 for three days. So if we add the two together, $31.98 for the first day and then $65.94 for the following three days the total is $97.92 for all four days. That is an average of $24.48/day which is $12.24/cup/day. *In my opinion*, that is a lot of money to spend on pop when cups of water are free and when you plan on drinking other specialty drinks (like butterbeer) that are not included. Only you can decide if soda in the parks is worth $100.Read the original comment
Looks like this is another resort wide price increase from what I have seen on Twitter. Bottled water has gone from $3.50 to $3.75, fountain drinks have gone from $3.99 to $4.29, and Quick Service locations have all gotten a $0.30 to $1 increase on everything (just check Columbia Harbor House as an example, and I can see the chicken tenders have increased from $9.99 to $10.49).Read the original comment
Apart from Magical Dining, fall is usually slow season for F&B in Orlando. It's partially for this reason that Disney originally launched Epcot's food and wine festival (to attract business during a typically slow season). But even that hasn't been pulling in the numbers it used to, perhaps due to high inflation. It's hard to justify eating out when groceries cost almost as much these days. As for these places posting job openings, that is very strange. I don't really have any idea why that would be the case.Read the original comment
Really depends. $15 is pretty much par for the course at the theme parks, nice hotels, or anywhere in touristy areas. Chain restaurants will be closer to $10. Local "dive" bars will be where you find $5 drinks.Read the original comment
$5 for a coke. Ouch. As a reminder to folks, if a place sells fountain beverages they’ll give you free ice water.Read the original comment
Orlando Coffee Roasters - 1401 W. Gore St. Suite 3 It's in the hood, in a sketchy looking location between 2 car shops but lemme tell ya.... some of the best coffee you can pick up. Great people running that place, it was originally a wholesale spot that supplies a number of spots throughout town, but they recently opened up to the public. They ship their product if that interests you. Highly recommend the Guatemalan RoastRead the original comment
To be honest, it’s slim pickings for reputable third wave roasters locally. Lineage and Orlando Coffee Roasters are pretty decent if you do drip/pour overs, but no-one in the area really does good espresso roasts - I actually order from Buddy Brew out in Tampa, they do pretty fast 1-2 day ground shipping and their roasts pull consistently good shots.Read the original comment
I have tried beans from every roaster in the Orlando area. This is all depending on the flavor profile you're looking to achieve. Haan has the best fruit-forward/light roasts. Lineage has amazing every-man espresso. Orlando Coffee Roaster is my dark horse, they have some phenomenal blends. But ultimately, I think Stemma is my absolute favorite roaster here. I have not had a bad batch from them yet and I think I've ordered about 15 different times from them so far. Honorable mention goes to Cultivo - I love Puerto Rican coffee and this is the closest I've found to the coffee I had in Yauco.Read the original comment
Haan and Lineage are great like others have mentioned. Leatherback Roasters and One Off Coffee Roasters are both Orlando based, have some more unique roasts. Look Alive Coffee is a roaster in St Pete, but stocked at Craft and Common, same as Leatherback.Read the original comment
Our favorite as well! You can get other Otus blends at a few places actually (I think they're all good). Canvas I know uses/sells it, as well as Qreate Coffee. They sell retail all over town as well (Vespr I think, Prairie House, and some others). Glen actually hosts a pop up coffee shop almost every week at the roastery in Winter Garden, too, where you can go in and try stuff out. Highly recommended!Read the original comment
Ligature is by far the best if you are into more unique single origin stuff. Also, Lineage roasts twice a week. Want to really start getting into coffee and learning what you like? Go to Easy Luck. They have the best variety of single origin coffees and are a multi roaster. They often sell “la cabra” which is one the best coffee roasters in the world.Read the original comment
Every brewery in the city has to-go options. They make significantly more money from in house sales then distro. The craft beer industry is in serious trouble lately with a lot of local places hurting badly financially right now. I would recommend you try to support local breweries first but understand the desire to try more and new beers. Best shops for craft are going to be Total Wine, ABC, GB’s bottle shop, whipporwill, commission beer chamber, half barrel beer project, Upsala, Bronson liquors, the nook, redlight redlight, thirsty topher, the aardvark, can and bottle. These are all the top craft accounts within the greater Orlando area with Sunshine and Progressive distributors that have a large To-go selection.Read the original comment
TW colonial went thru a beer section reset fairly recently and cut down on a bunch of SKUs that don’t sell well. Altamonte is going to be doing the same shortly. New beers will be back in both soon tho. Source- I’m the guy who stocks a majority of the actual craft beer in Total winesRead the original comment
Zymarium is making some of the best mead in the world right now and the taproom is cool as hell. Joe and Ginger are awesome people too. I wish I had more hands so I could give that place 4 thumbs up It’s also close enough to GB and Redlight Redlight that you can find some other GF options at beer-centric spots for a $5 Uber (or 5 min drive). Support local when you can, the beer industry is a bumpy place right nowRead the original comment
Recently purchased 3 kegs for a camping weekend. Researched somewhat extensively and Total Wine was cheapest of about 10 stores. Plus they have the largest selection and largest stock. PS thanks for the invite!Read the original comment
A little out of the way but Pat's near UCF might have bulk discounts. They even deliver kegs not sure how far they goRead the original comment
Since we got the beer brain tank here, I've been trying to find a closer place to pick up my favorite beer, Lost Coast Tangerine Wheat. I live in Waterford lakes and the closest place is Total Wine in the Milk District. Like OP this is about a 30m drive from me and would like to find a closer place. I've looked online and haven't been able to find a more convenient method than to make the drive every once awhileRead the original comment
I dont think its necessarily anything you are doing wrong but from experience working as a bartender now in Orlando, its getting harder for the food service industry to keep up with paying its workers, operating costs, and investments. The COL in Orlando is not friendly, and most of Florida is starting to feel it. Hiring for us is just frozen until we can navigate around supply chain problems cause atm we cant even source supplies we need for popular drinks we make.Read the original comment
Like others said. Total wine. They can even try to order things if it’s available at the distributors. Prices are pretty good imho. I usually go here even though an abc is closer.Read the original comment
Five Star in Longwood like one person recommended. Sammy is the owner and he is absolutely awesome. If he doesnt have it you can ask him to order it and he will find it. You may have to buy a case but he will find it. Another great place is Country Discount Liquor in sorrento on 46 headed towards mt.dora. I can never remember the guys name but he is an indian dude and the owner. If you ask him to find what youre looking for, again, he will find it. Again, you may have to buy a case if its something expensive or just very off that he knows wont sell otherwise. I have had to wait months for some stuff but they pull through. They both have been able to find me Inverroche Amber, which is an amazing South African gin, which is near impossible to find here in the states (unless you buy online and pay way more than you should) Best of luck! Edit: spellingRead the original comment
I still subscribe to Eola Coffee. Their prices haven't really changed and they still hand-deliver, which I like. I used to subscribe to KOS and Ligature, but their prices have gone up. KOS's price is currently discounted at $17 a bag, but Ligature went from $16 to 24. I'll have to check out Otus and BellBird. I just bought the wife a Moka pot, so we've been plowing through Bustelo bricks weekly.Read the original comment
I think the all the wholesale places like bjs, costco, and sams usually have bigger bottles of liquor (1.75L) for sale slightly cheaper than you find in most other places, but their selection is smaller and limited to much less variety.Read the original comment
I used to use zephyrhills at my office. Every time the guy came but he was trying to sell us something (cups, water cooler, etc). He obviously had sales goals to meet. I started buying my 5 gallon jugs at Sam's at 1/3 the price.Read the original comment
Pulled from r/orlando and the Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando subreddits, plus coffee and beer threads whose titles name Orlando or Central Florida, collected in September 2026 and quoted unedited. Its own corpus: no comment here appears on any other page of this site. Comments are unedited and link back to the original thread. They are individual experiences, not evidence about any distributor in general, and we deliberately do not aggregate them into a score.

We verified 26, which means we read each company's own website or, for the licensed beer tier, the state trade association's published member map. That is not the number in the metro, which nobody knows. The licensed side is small and countable: the association lists three companies at four metro addresses.
Generally no. Florida Statutes section 563.021 gives malt beverage distributors exclusive sales territories and forbids delivering a brand to a retailer outside that territory, so for a given brand at your address there is usually one lawful supplier. The state association's map shows three companies covering metro Orlando. Wine and spirits have no equivalent statute in Florida, and neither does coffee or soft drinks.
It has no legal definition, which is why we print each delivery area in the company's own words rather than converting it. Twelve of the 26 use the phrase. Two unrelated companies define it as roughly fifteen counties, one of them naming Ocala, Daytona, Brevard and Fort Pierce as the edges. Only one supplier here names actual counties, and one gives a radius in miles instead.
Some describe a reach that would cover Tampa, because the fifteen-county region several of them name runs that way. Almost none describe South Florida. Our Miami listings are a separate supply base with a separate page, and the Florida state page covers how far each metro says it goes. Check the area wording on the individual listing before assuming.
There are nine on this page and the trade is young: the verified dates run from 1998 to 2016, with no century-old roasting house of the kind Baltimore or New York has. Operators in the city are divided about the depth of the bench, and we have quoted one saying so rather than leaving it out. Judge the roasters on the cards and the links, not on our summary.
Seven name alcohol in their own copy, and one cash-and-carry warehouse carries wine and spirits at two of its three metro branches. The other nineteen are coffee, water, soft drinks, juice, syrups and vending. Every row is marked, because on the licensed side the rules about who may sell you what are different and stricter.
Each company was read off its own website and captured to file in September 2026, with the licensed beer tier checked against the Florida Beer Wholesalers Association member map. Where a company publishes no address or no phone, the field is empty because it published none. Two candidates were dropped after we opened their captures, one of them because the only evidence of its location was a Reddit comment.
No distributor paid to be listed and there are no affiliate links to any of them. The directory is published by VoiceOrder Solutions, an ordering software company, and that relationship is disclosed in the footer of every page and on our about page.
Two known gaps. Greco and Sons, a large Chicago Italian foodservice distributor now being acquired by Sysco, is not listed because its site blocked our capture and we would not write it up from third-party sources. Stock Yards is a US Foods brand rather than an independent distributor, so it appears under US Foods rather than as its own listing. If you run a Orlando beverage distribution business and we have missed you, that is an omission rather than a judgement.
