Founded in 2001 and led by industry veteran Bob Leggett, Artisanal Imports is a leading importer, seller and marketer of world-class beverages to American audiences.
Before Artisanal, Bob Leggett spent his career building beer brands America now takes for granted — helping grow Shiner Bock and Corona into national names.
Then came the sip that changed everything: a Duvel. Convinced that American drinkers deserved the world's great specialty beers — served fresh, supported properly, and sold with conviction — he founded Artisanal Imports in Austin in 2001.
Twenty-five years later, the house he built represents monastery breweries with a millennium of history, the world's oldest lambic cellar, England's most storied cider makers and Central America's proudest lager — with a team whose relationships run just as deep.
Bob Leggett establishes Artisanal Imports to bring world-class specialty beers to the US market.
Bosteels, Timmermans, St. Feuillien and Belgium's great houses anchor the portfolio; ciders from Aspall and Westons follow.
US import rights acquired for Andechs, Früh, Praga, Weltenburger and more — and Andechs distribution expands to two-thirds of the US market.
A wide network of 3PL logistics partners and a national sales team carry the portfolio to every US market.
Whether you distribute, retail or brew — there's a seat at our table.
