In April 1965, when Donnewald Distributing Company was officially appointed an authorized wholesaler of Anheuser-Busch products, a multi-generational tradition began. Founded by Bud Donnewald, the company was built upon four foundational pillars: highest quality products, exceptional people, relentless hard work, and ethical, courteous conduct in every business relationship.

Today, more than 60 years later, that tradition continues under the leadership of Mike Donnewald and Josh Donnewald. With two modern distribution facilities located in Greenville and Carbondale, Donnewald Distributing operates at the forefront of the midwest beverage industry, combining robust cold-chain operations with deep community roots across 33 Illinois counties.
