Visitors to Central Florida in 2024
Central Florida isn't just a regional market — it's one of the most dynamic spirits environments in the country. A relentless flow of tourism, a rapidly growing permanent population, and a thriving on-premise scene create an opportunity that few markets can match.
Florida is one of the three largest spirits markets in the United States. Central Florida alone captures 38% of all Florida liquor sales — making it the single most consequential market in the state for brand growth.

We operate on a hybrid model — combining a base market development retainer with performance-based growth fees. We only win when you win. No conflict of interest. Ever.
Direct sales representation and relationship management across Central Florida's premium on-premise accounts — bars, restaurants, hotels, and private clubs.
Strategic menu and back-bar placements at high-volume, trend-setting establishments that influence consumer behavior throughout the region.
Brand immersion sessions for bartenders and service staff — the people who actually recommend your product to guests at the point of sale.
Transparent, regular reporting on placements, velocity, and market performance so you always know exactly where your brand stands.
On-premise tastings, brand activations, and trade events that build genuine consumer awareness and create memorable brand experiences.
We secure your brand a permanent presence in the venues that matter — table tents, seasonal menus, happy hour lists, and featured boards. Event Activation puts your brand in the room for one night. Feature Programs keep it there every night.
We partner with brands that have a compelling story and a genuine commitment to quality. Here's who we're currently championing across Central Florida.
100% Idaho potato vodka crafted from the finest spuds grown along the 44th parallel. Clean, creamy, and unmistakably American.
A premium tequila that embodies the spirit of Mexico — bold, authentic, and built for those who demand more from every pour.
A pioneering THC-infused seltzer redefining the social drinking experience for wellness-conscious consumers seeking something different.
100% Polish rye vodka with heritage and character. A serious spirit for bartenders who seek authenticity without the premium markup.
Phil King didn't stumble into the beverage industry — he grew up in it.
Starting as a classically trained chef, Phil spent 15 years in professional kitchens designing menus and managing back-of-house operations before making a deliberate move into wine and spirits in 2000. That culinary foundation gives iHospitality a perspective most brokers simply don't have: a deep, firsthand understanding of how beverages function within the full context of a hospitality experience.
Over two decades in the industry, Phil built relationships with the account owners and operators who trust a recommendation because they know it comes from real expertise — not just a sales pitch.
Joined Southern Wine & Spirits, one of the nation's largest distributors, launching a career in beverage sales.
Moved to Premier Beverage, earning recognition for award-winning on-premise fine wine sales performance.
Promoted into Spirits Division management — progressing from Key Accounts to Account Development to Craft Spirit Specialist over the following decade.
Founded iHospitality to give craft spirit brands the dedicated, expert representation they deserve in Central Florida's booming market.
