In this episode, I meet up with serial Beer Entrepreneur Rich Coombes from Kaddy. Having started other beer and cider ventures in the past, including Batlow Cider and Canberra’s Capital Brewing, Rich and other co-founder and former UBER Australia Head of Operations Mike Abbott, are streamlining the way suppliers and customers in the alcoholic beverages market interact with their B2B ordering platform Kaddy.
In our chat we discuss how Kaddy works, and how it can help breweries to start dipping their toes into wholesale distribution. We also talk about the self-distribution and traditional distribution models and how the Kaddy platform combines the two creating an interesting hybrid way of doing business in the wholesale distribution space.
A very interesting concept, and yet another example of how the rise of the Internet Economy and the digital tech world is disrupting and redefining industries in regards to the supplier, customer relationship and cutting out unnecessary middle men.
