“We needed to be at GABF in order to hear directly from

our potential consumers. We are looking to design & build

products that complement not complicate lives. We have one,

the Vessi Fermentor, that we think is a great start. But, it was

imperative that we get it out in front of the beer community.

Plus, it was a blast to be a part of GABF!”

Noel Dolan, Sr. Marketing & Open Innovation ManagerVessiTM Fermentor & Dispenser

(Premier Supporter)

“GABF provides an incredible opportunity

to support our current customers and

meet new prospects. We partner with craft

brewers all over the country who are

seeking capital to expand, so to be able to

connect with all of these folks in one place

at the industry’s biggest event is highly

valuable. The exposure we gain by sharing

a beer with brewers and owners in such a

cool atmosphere, as well as them seeing

our logo around the venue, is great!”

Randall Behrens & Tracy Sheppard, Senior Loan Officers

Live Oak Bank(Non-Exhibiting Supporter)

Sponsorship Benefits

“GABF offers several opportunities to connect with our customers. Through the event itself, and the

fact it draws so many brewers and brewery owners, it offers a place and time where our craft brewing

customers are in high concentration and good spirits; this allows to have face-to-face meetings, conduct

hop selection remotely, and/or just have casual interactions. By having a booth in the Homebrew

Marketplace, we also connect with homebrew shop owners, and the homebrewers themselves; this is

a great way to promote our key ingredient lines.”Jake Keeler, Director of Marketing

Brewers Supply Group(Premier Supporter)
