Who in the heck is this (you may be asking)? You'll be seeing this logo pop up more and more over the next couple months. Doll Distributing-Bismarck has bought out McQuade Distributing. As of January 1st, they now own McQuade's.
McQuade's Owner, Shannon McQuade, said goodbye to the distribution dynasty last week. "Many of you know and yet many do not, but we are selling McQuade Distributing-Bismarck as of tomorrow. It was not something I was looking to do, I was proud and looking forward to continuing long into the fourth generation with Ian and my work family, but the world and corporate structure looks a little different for many industries today, and ours not immune. That said, the new company taking over is also family run with good Midwest values."
McQuade says the McQuade's Charity Softball Tournament WILL go on, no matter what, "We have a passionate board and that does not change, the last weekend of June will be great again for its 51st year in 2026!"
