The Early Days: Bama Budweiser
Our journey began in 1970 when Frank Schilleci purchased Bama Budweiser of Sylacauga and Anniston. With a vision to provide top-quality beverages and exceptional service, Frank laid the foundation for what would become a thriving business. Under his leadership, Bama Budweiser quickly gained a reputation for reliability and customer satisfaction.
A New Era: The Hogan Legacy
Fast forward to 2016, when Frank’s grandson, Matthew Hogan, acquired the company from his estate. Matthew brought with him a fresh perspective and a desire to expand the business further. Understanding the evolving market and the need to diversify, he began exploring new opportunities and partnerships.
