The company is committed to giving you great selection and personalized service. Their mission is to market and distribute premium beverages for the mutual reward and growth of their customers, suppliers and employees.
The company was created in January of 2017, when CSB and The Odom Corporation announced the sale of Click Distributing to CSB and a partnership between CSB and Odom to found and co-own NW Beverages.
The ownership teams believe the benefit from the combined organization will enhance the resources and expertise to better serve the growing needs and competitive challenges of this regional market: from Seattle to Vancouver to Boise to Coeur D’Alene to Spokane. The existing Click organizations will continue to operate independently for the foreseeable future. Click will offer its highly successful personnel and best practices to the overall Odom and CSB organizations and vice versa. This unique combination will make the whole greater than the sum of the parts. Click management and substantially all of the Click staff will continue with the new organization including Jim Florio as the Vice President/General Manager of the Western WA Click operation and Terry Nichols as Vice President/General Manager of the Eastern WA/North ID Click operation; Rick Steckler and Josh Davis will provide consulting services for the overall group.
Craig Stein, owner and CEO of Craig Stein Beverage, said,
We are excited that the strength of Odom and CSB combined with the addition of the Click organizations will create a larger and stronger Northwest distribution network. We are confident this will lead to increased market service and penetration capabilities that would be an additional benefit to the suppliers and customers of all the involved companies.
With the experienced leadership of all three distributors, 125+ years in business, and 2000 employees working together, Northwest Beverages will become the leading beverage distribution solution across the region. Providing suppliers with a full-service marketing, sales, and delivery solution built for the long haul.
A positive mental attitude. We are proud of our business and of our team. We are excited about the future. This excitement and assurance is vital to our success.
Being proactive is more than taking initiative. It is recognizing that we are responsible for our own choices. We celebrate those in our organization that accept responsibility and make things happen.
We are committed to succeeding. We will succeed if we make a commitment, set goals and execute a plan to accomplish those goals. This knowledge and action creates a confident atmosphere within individuals, teams and the organization.
We are proud of our accomplishments of our team. Our teammates understand that intelligent effort and hard work equals success. The journey as well as the destination is a source of pride for all teammates.
Win-Win. Whether a personal or professional relationship, we seek ways to find win-win solutions that benefit all involved. It is not my way or your way, but a third way that is better, our way. Our way is about solving problems, seizing opportunities and working out differences through creative cooperation.
