Beer and Wine Distributors of Arizona

BWDA is the statewide trade association for licensed wholesalers of beverage alcohol products and other beverages. We represent our member companies in legislative, regulatory, legal, and public policy matters. We strongly support Arizona’s three-tier licensing and distribution system for beverage alcohol, ensuring fairness and equity for our members. Partnering with policymakers, we help craft laws and guidelines that promote an orderly marketplace, ethical distribution, responsible consumption by consumers aged 21+, and industry best practices.

BWDA believes low potency, hemp-derived THC beverages should be properly tested and labeled, regulated by Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and Control, subjected to appropriate taxes, and distributed and sold to legal age adults only through establishments licensed under Title 4 of the Arizona Revised Statutes.

We collaborate closely with the Arizona Department of Liquor Licenses and Control, and we value their essential regulatory role in maintaining rigorous industry standards to ensure public health and safety.
