Townsend, Tennessee, July 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Company Distilling, award-winning distillery located in East Tennessee, and the USL League One team One Knoxville Soccer Club, announced a long-term strategic partnership today.
The partnership was a natural fit, with both entities having shared interest in creating experiences and places in East Tennessee that support and encourage community growth. As part of the partnership, Company Distilling becomes the Official Bourbon of the One Knoxville Soccer Club.
"Company Distilling is attacking the spirits space in new and exciting ways. They are leading with innovation without losing focus on their core principle - bringing people together. That's exactly what we at One Knox strive to do in the soccer space," said Drew McKenna, Partner at One Knoxville SC. "Equally important, Company feels like home. It's a brand that is already native to Knoxville and East Tennessee. One Knox strives to be seen in a similar light, so this new partnership is an exciting one for us."
The Company Distilling / One Knox partnership will come to life in a number of exciting ways. Chief among them is Company’s title sponsorship of One Knoxville’s game against Lexington Soccer Club hosted at Regal Soccer Stadium in Knoxville, TN on August 18th, 2023. One Knox and Company Distilling invite fans of craft spirits and soccer to celebrate the partnership and remind Lexington and the rest of USL League One, that Bourbon is Better in Tennessee, like most things.
