In April of 1965 when Donnewald Distributing Company was appointed wholesaler of Anheuser-Busch products, a tradition began. That tradition, started by Bud Donnewald, consists of the highest quality products and people, hard work, and fair, courteous and ethical conduct in all relationships.

Today, more than 55 years later, that tradition lives on. These basic principles must be clearly understood and used every day by every employee of this company. This organization was and always will be committed to excellence in our industry. We must continue to lead and be the very best in every facet of the beer business.

Donnewald Distributing has two facilities, one in Greenville, IL and the other in Carbondale, IL.  Donnewald Distributing Company services 24 counties for Anheuser-Busch brands as well as our full portfolio of suppliers and products.  In addition to those, we service 19 additional counties with non-alcoholic beverages, wine and spirits, and other craft and beyond beer brands.

Anheuser-Busch Wholesalers, together with 12 breweries and a vast network of shippers, provide the most extensive and effective beer distribution system in the brewing industry. Refrigerated warehouses and computer-based inventory systems make sure our Retailers and Customers get the freshest, highest-quality beer available anywhere.
