Chatham Brewing
Chatham Brewing is a popular brewery that needed a major expansion in order to survive. The owners are long-time members of the Hudson Valley community and wished to partner with local farmers to create a line of Hudson Valley sourced beer as well as re-locate to a larger facility to increase brewing capacity. Chatham Brewing applied to IWW seeking assistance with financial planning and organization, drafting a detailed business plan, and locating the proper equipment for production and manufacturing.
HVADC provided consulting services and managed the brewery’s relationship with a brand development company who assisted them with a comprehensive strategic plan. Chatham Brewing successfully completed their expansion and went on to receive the Columbia County Chamber of Commerce Crystal Apple Award in 2014 for their contribution to economic progress and community development.
