Ryan McGinnis Shares His Branding Knowledge
Come hear Ryan McGinnis, Knight of the Brass Rail at O-D-V Imports, LLC at this public seminar. On Wednesday, June 21 at 6:00 p.m., Ryan McGinnis will be visiting our Sandhill Las Vegas Crescent location to give a seminar on Branding in the LIquor Industry. He'll be educating Crescent students and the public on classic liqueur brands, such as Fernet, Chartreuse, Galliano and Grand Marnier.
After three years of working with Blackheath Beverage Group, last year, McGinnis took the leap and launched his own firm called O-D-V Imports (as in “eau de vie,” or “water of life”). He handles sales and marketing of a portfolio of craft, premium and independent spirits in Nevada, Colorado and Arizona, including Atlantico Rum, Tequila Fortaleza, Casa D’Aristi liqueurs and Cocktail Caviar by Holl & Kamp.
Prior to Blackheath, McGinnis, who graduated from UNLV with a dual degree in hospitality and beverage management, worked for Montecristo Rum, Price Imports, Diageo and Ketel One Vodka. In talking about branding success, McGinnis recently remarked: “If a bartender recommends my brands to you, I’ve done something right. If a customer asks for them on their own, then the brand is definitely on the right track.”
The address is: 4180 S. Sandhill Dr., Suite B-8, Las Vegas, NV 89121.
This seminar is open to the public. Please RSVP at 702-458-9910 or on our Facebook invitation here.
