Retail Partners just like you
Our business has grown by 30% in the past year since joining Drizly, and that growth has come not just from orders we receive through its platform, but also through our in-store business, expanding our reach from a few blocks to a five mile radius.
Kunal Desai, Owner & President, Urban Pantry
Because of Drizly we can expand our inventory to include more craft beer and single malts. Because of this expanded inventory we’ve also seen more people coming into the store that would’ve gone elsewhere or driven farther to get these products.

We continue to be excited about our relationship with Drizly – we have benefited greatly from the partnership. We now attract business from many corporate customers that we never had in the past as well as significant sales from outside our ZIP Code.

FAQ’s
Just in case you were curious, too.
Is this REALLY legal?
Drizly was uniquely designed to operate within the three-tier system. We’re not out to disrupt it – we’re here to help our partners bring their shelves online in a legally compliant manner. We’re fully versed on the proper regulations of each state we operate in and can work with you to determine if you’re able to partner with Drizly today.
How long does it take to get started?
We’ve done it in as little as 48 hours before and since we’re pretty competitive, we’re always trying to beat that record. Generally, you can expect that it will take around 5-7 days, but it depends on a variety of factors. We can give you a better idea once we start talking.
Does my store need special permits or licenses to deliver alcohol?
You might. We strongly encourage you to contact regulatory bodies in your state to ensure you’re properly certified to deliver alcohol to customers.
Who does the deliveries?
Stores and their staff maintain control of packing and delivering all orders received through Drizly. In some states, third-party delivery services are available. For more information on external delivery solutions in your area, contact us.
Can I be the exclusive Drizly store for my area?
We operate on a marketplace model and our platform is open to all qualified retailers. While we do not guarantee exclusivity to any one store in a given area, we’re constantly investing in driving new customers to all of our Retail Partners to help grow their business.
How does Drizly determine delivery zones and order minimums?
Drizly assesses real-time drive data to determine optimal delivery zones for our Retail Partners. Drizly’s delivery zones help your team reach the right shoppers in your area and ensure a consistent delivery experience. Our team will also provide guidance on order minimums for maximum user satisfaction and return rate, so shoppers come back to your store again, and again…and again.
