Craft Now Raley’s Top Beer Sales Segment

Dear Client: For West Sacramento-based Raley's grocery chain, "all of our potential growth is in craft," beer, wine and spirits buyer Curtis Mann told the Sacramento Bee. Raley's annual revenue is $3 billion, per company fact sheet. They own and operate 128 stores across California and Nevada, including Bel Air Markets, Nob Hill Foods, and Food Source. The chain started a push for craft two years ago. Just last August, craft beer sales exceeded those of "mainstream beer" at Raley's.
