Our History
McDonald Distributing has been servicing East Central Minnesota since 1932.  The McDonald family started the operation during prohibition, selling candy and cigarettes, and with the repeal of prohibition started selling beer to the area.  In 1950, McDonald Distributing partnered with Anheuser-Busch, and is now the oldest AB house in the state of Minnesota.  We are very proud to represent world class breweries, cideries, distilleries, and others, and honored to serve the great retailers and consumers of our community...because making friends is our business, and always will be.  
Our Mission
Beer has been helping people come together and have extraordinary experiences for thousands of years, and it's our honor to be part of that history. We're always looking for better ways to do business, and our talented staff helps us raise the bar every day. Our retailers and consumers can rest assured that we'll never settle for "good enough". It is our goal to deliver superior products and exemplary service in every interaction.

We feel a strong sense of ownership when it comes to our work, always striving to produce better results for our customers. First and foremost, we value people. That includes our team, our retailers, and our community.

In every interaction, we strive to demonstrate integrity, responsibility, hard work, and ethical business practices.
