About us
Armada Distributing is an American Indian and family-owned, Tulsa-based business that specializes in providing the Oklahoma market with premium wine, spirits, beer and non-alcoholic products, including barware, glassware and home bar options, from around the world - and right here in Oklahoma. Our unique, custom-designed ordering platform allows our customers and suppliers to stay in constant engagement with our portfolio and active orders. Our sales, marketing and social media strategy brings our portfolio of brands to the market with multiple points of penetration, at a rapid rate. We strive to continually evolve our portfolio, source brands with consumers in mind, and give market representation to small and family-operated craft brands that would get lost in larger portfolios.
Sustainability
Armada Distributing has made a commitment to invest in sustainable business practices. From replacing all of our warehouse and office lighting to energy efficient LEDs, to our company-wide recycling efforts; we understand our responsibility to limit our footprint where we can and help create a more sustainable future. It is within that spirit that we also seek suppliers that support sustainable growing and production practices.
