YONKERS, NY (October 27, 2015) – Sheehan Family Companies announced that they have entered into a distribution partnership with Yonkers Brewing Company. The partnership will enable this Yonkers-based brewery to access more of their local market and introduce their lineup of accessible and easy- drinking craft beers to a wider range of consumers across New York City, Long Island, the Hudson Valley and the Capital Region.
“Yonkers is more than a business to me and Nick (co-founder), it is a passion project that involves both of our families, our friends, and the entire community,” said John Rubbo, BrewEO and Co-Founder of Yonkers Brewing Co. “Our team is proud of what we have built since we started in January 2013 and we are excited that this partnership will substantially expand our reach and presence in our home market."
