About Us

Tennessee Crown Distributing Co. in Memphis, Tennessee is the consolidation of United Liquors Corporation, established in 1948, and Southwestern Wine & Liquor Company, established in 1939. We have become one of the top distributors of fine wines and spirits in the Tennessee area. Through the years we have steadily built upon our efforts to maintain an excellent relationship with both our suppliers and customers as we act as the liaison between the two. Tennessee Crown Distributing Co. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Georgia Crown Distributing Co., in McDonough, Georgia. We have continued to expand our portfolio and update technology to better serve our suppliers and continue to increase the level of service offered to our valued customers. We service the following counties in West Tennessee: Benton, Carroll, Chester, Crocket, Decatur, Dyer, Fayette, Gibson, Hardeman, Hardin, Haywood, Henderson, Henry, Lake, Lauderdale, Madison, McNairy, Obion, Shelby, Tipton and Weakley.

Our mission is to provide quality service and quality products together with a well-organized management strategy as the key components for Tennessee Crown Distributing Co. to not only meet but exceed the needs and expectations of our customers. Our goal is to always offer more to our customer than he is accustomed to receiving from our competitors.

At Tennessee Crown Distributing Co. we know a wine and liquor distributor is only as good as its products and staff.
