Stagnaro Distributing was originally Hamilton Distributing located in Hamilton, Ohio. In the late 70’s Arthur Stagnaro purchased Hamilton Distributing which was a 1 million case distributorship that serviced two Ohio counties, Butler and Preble. Two of Arthurs son’s Michael and Chris began working full time in the company in 1995 and 1997 and began to learn all aspects of the business with aspirations to grow.

That opportunity to grow came in 2003 through the sale of Hamilton Distributing and the simultaneous purchase of Dennert Distributing of Northern Kentucky which tripled the companies size. For the next 6 years, the company made a series of acquisitions culminating with the purchase of Dennert Distributing of Cincinnati in February of 2009. The companies were then renamed Stagnaro Distributing and today we sell, market and deliver more than 7 million cases on an annual basis to more than 3500 retailers within a 28 county footprint throughout Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio.
