Reyes Holding is a Chicago-based corporation with subsidiaries primarily in the beverage and bottling industries. It is comprised of Reyes Beverage Group, The Martin-Brower Company and Reinhart Food Service. Reyes Holding remains a family-owned business controlled by Chris and Jude Reyes, who founded the company in 1976. Looking for a way into the beverage business, they purchased a Schiltz beer distribution company for $740,000. That investment has now grown into an empire that does more than $23.5 billion in sales annually. The Reyes Beverage Group produces more than 100 million cases of beer each year, making it the largest beer distribution company in the U.S. Together, the companies within Reyes Holding drive more than 130 million miles annually, delivering more than 1.3 billion cases which employ just over 33,000 people. The Martin-Brower Company was acquired by Reyes Holding in 1998 and currently stands as McDonald’s largest distributor worldwide. Reinhart Foodservice is the fifth-largest broadline foodservice distributor in the country, operating distribution centres in 27 cities in 34 states. In 2015, the company launched the Great Lakes Coca-Cola Bottling LLC, which serves as Coca-Cola’s primary bottling and distribution arm in the Great Lakes region.
