Moonshine MFG, the Washington-based skateboard manufacturer, has partnered with North Carolina’s Eastern Skateboard Supply. Partnering with this wholesale distributor – one of the most prolific in the country and the largest on the East Coast – will accelerate Moonshine in its growth and trajectory in the high-end longboard market. The partnership will also make Moonshine boards much more accessible to shops and ultimately the skaters who are searching for the best and most durable boards their money can buy.
“We are very excited about this relationship and we couldn’t ask for a better distribution partner than Eastern Skateboard Supply,” said Greg Kish, sales and marketing director for Moonshine MFG. “Eastern has the reputation and connections to get our innovative longboarding products to a much wider audience.”
From ESS’s perspective, picking up Moonshine was a natural move.
“Eastern Skateboard Supply has the pulse on the market and we’ve been watching the progression of Moonshine Mfg. during the past 12 months,” said Reggie Barnes, ESS President and founder. “The product is innovative and the construction is very unique for the longboarding market. We feel Moonshine Mfg. will complement our existing product offering and our dealers will be very receptive to this brand.”
