JF Hillebrand Acquires Sidekick to Deliver Last Mile Logistics in California

[ August 31, 2017   //   ]

JF Hillebrand, an international logistics service provider solely dedicated to beer, wine and spirits, has acquired Sidekick Delivery, a last mile delivery company that specialises in wine and craft beers. The deal enables JF Hillebrand to expand its beverage logistics offerings with a last mile logistics solution in California.

Elly Hartshorn founded Sidekick Delivery in San Francisco in 2014 with the company tagline of “snappy and precise wine and beer delivery in California“.

“What Sidekick Delivery has achieved in just a few years is outstanding.  Elly’s wine passion, determination and commitment to provide stellar service for members of the wine and craft beer community are values that complement our company’s vision of delivering tailored logistics solutions in niche markets,“ said Thomas Barfoed, Area Director for USA, Canada & Mexico at JF Hillebrand Group.

The team from Sidekick will join forces with JF Hillebrand at the company’s California warehouse and office, and will work together to enhance and accelerate the evolvement of an integrated last mile logistics Platform.
