Wine and spirits distributor across New England with five operating brands
Martignetti Companies operates a multi-brand distribution network across five New England states, built on a foundation of payroll and HR systems (Paychex, Paylocity, Dynamics 365). Active projects signal operational consolidation: the company is standardizing payroll processes, implementing Paylocity's time-management module, and managing performance-based compensation structures—suggesting a shift from legacy HR infrastructure toward integrated workforce management as the organization scales across its portfolio.
Martignetti Companies is a privately held wine and spirits distributor founded in 1908, now in its third generation of family ownership. The company operates through five distinct brands across Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine, positioning itself as the leading distributor in New England and seventh largest in the United States. Distribution spans both wine and spirits, with exclusive state-level arrangements in some markets. The business serves a network of retail and on-premise customers across the region, with current operational focus on portfolio expansion, payroll modernization, and inventory management.
Martignetti operates across five New England states—Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine—through branded subsidiaries including United Liquors, Carolina Wine & Spirits, Classic Wine Imports, and Commonwealth Wine & Spirits, plus regional entities like Maine Beverage Company.
Martignetti uses Paychex and Paylocity for payroll and time management, along with Dynamics 365 for broader operational management. Current projects include Paylocity time-management system implementation and payroll process standardization.
