In 2008, Columbia Distributing, Mt. Hood Beverage, and Gold River Distributing united to form Columbia Distributing as we know it today. With this merger and the 2018 acquisitions of Marine View Beverage and General Distributors, Inc., our company is now one of the Top 5 largest beer/wine distributors in the US. Size is not our only distinction, however, as Columbia Distributing boasts an extensive selection of beverages, including craft beer, wine and spirits.
Columbia Distributing’s success lies in the teamwork of the roughly 3,000 employees spread throughout 27 locations in Oregon and Washington, who every day come together to execute on a common vision.
Based on the success of the company and our future growth plans, Columbia Distributing is looking for a Chief People Officer to join the executive team where it will lead the overall people strategy of the company.
