Here's How ESOPs Work for Craft Breweries

Today we talk about ESOPs with Rocky Fiore, Managing Director of Prairie Capital Advisors. Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) can be a great option to reward employees and keep your brewery business independent.  Craft breweries are all about collaboration, camaraderie, and employee empowerment. Employee ownership may be a natural evolution in the craft beer culture. Rocky oversees client engagements related to employee stock ownership plans (ESOP) feasibility and structuring, valuation, fairness opinions, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), estate planning, capital structuring and more for clients across the country.Topics covered:Top reasons a craft brewery would choose an ESOPBrewery ValuationsMergers and Acquisitions (M&A) in the craft beer spaceResourcesContact info for Rocky FioreLearn more about ESOPsSign up for the World Famous Craft Brewery Financial Training NewsletterToday’s episode is brought to you by BevCap.
