Budco Distributing was founded by Mr. Les Cruvant in 1952. That year, Budco and it's six employees delivered 50,000 cases of beer.

Charles V. Marsala joined Budco in 1971, working as a Salesman, Route Supervisor and General Manager. In 1992, Charles entered into a Limited Partnership with Anheuser-Busch to purchase the distributorship. In 2000, the remaining shares were purchased from AB and Marsala Beverage was formed.

Marsala Beverage is headquartered in Monroe and is locally owned and operated by Charles and Brenda Marsala and their children, Damon Marsala and Mandy Pruitt. Our approximately 90 employees, which includes a Branch Warehouse in Ferriday, LA, distribute AB-InBev beers and beverages, Modelo beers, Mikes Hard Lemonade, Four Loko brands and other quality beverages to 14 North Louisiana parishes. We annually deliver over 2.8 million cases of beverages to more than 700 licensed retail accounts. With a 63%+ market share, our beers are almost 2 of every 3 beers sold.
