We Deliver More than Beer
Thank you for your interest in Alford Distributing. Alford Distributing is a family owned and operated business, started by Irene and Aaron Alford in 1947. The family business started in downtown El Centro at 441 State Street. In the 1980s the company was relocated to East Main Street in El Centro. To accommodate growth, Alford Distributing built a state of the art facility located in Crown Business Center, Imperial, California.
We are the exclusive distributor of many great brands in the Imperial County. Please see our Partners page for details.
Alford Distributing operates as part of a “three-tier” system. Anheuser-Busch produces the product, Alford purchases the product and distributes to A.B.C. (Alcohol Beverage Control) licensed accounts throughout the Imperial Valley.
Alford Distributing employs over 40 employees and is proud of the fact we offer excellent benefits, including 401k plan, and full medical coverage. Many of the Alford Distributing team members have worked with the company for over twenty years.
We are proud to be a sponsor of many of the major special events in the Imperial Valley, helping foster the quality of life and spirit of community in the Imperial Valley.
