Thesul, LLC | Application Preview
Thesul, LLC is a start-up craft liquor distribution company seeking government grants to fund initial inventory, a $40,000 surety bond, and cover business expenses for the first year. Their business plan outlines a five-year strategy focused on forming contracts with brewers and distillers, as well as local restaurants and bars.
In Year 1, Thesul plans to establish partnerships with beer and soju producers and utilize strong online marketing through social media and pop-up craft workshops to promote products. In Year 2, the company will maintain existing relationships while exploring new accounts and continuing promotional events to support local establishments. By Year 3, they aim to launch an online shop in collaboration with a joint venture. Year 4 will see expansion into brewery cities in other states, while Year 5 is focused on the ongoing addition of manufacturers to sustain growth in the local market.
The company argues for funding approval by highlighting its unique approach to craft liquor distribution, distinguishing itself from larger companies that prioritize mainstream brands. Thesul targets a niche market dedicated to the growing demand for craft products, positioning itself as the go-to distributor for quality craft liquors in Las Vegas.
In terms of competition, Thesul faces established distributors like Southern Glazers, Pacific Edge, and Wang Globalnet. However, their competitive edge lies in focusing exclusively on craft products and creating engaging promotional experiences, such as tastings and workshops. This strategy aims to cultivate a loyal customer base and facilitate access to a diverse range of craft liquor products both online and in-person.

Heavy online promotion (e.g., Instagrama and Facebook) with on-sight promotion (e.g., pop-up craft workshop) will be the main marketing tool to introduce and experience new products in market. Year 2 - The Sūl will maintain current manufacturers, accounts and clients. New manufacturers and accounts will be added and we will continue to support restaurants and bars with promotional various promotion events. Year 3 - The Sūl will focus on expanding the footprint with join venture company to open an online shop. Year 4 - The Sūl will expand to brewery cities in other states to add different products to online shop. Year 5 - The Sūl will maintain and keep adding manufacturers and accounts for continued development and serve the local and strip restaurants/bars. The Sūl is focused on a unique strategy that no other liquor distributions are using. Also, big distribution companies are focused on main brand labels rather than craft beers, wines and liquors due to larger demand and sales volume. However, we see it as an opportunity to get into a niche market to focus on growing demand of craft products. We are starting ahead of other distribution company or other start-up distribution company and we will be in good position with breweries and restaurants/bars when people realize that The Sūl is the one and only company who is fully dedicated and focused to deliver quality craft liquors to the town of Las Vegas.
