Johnson Brothers, a leading wine, beer, and spirits distributor, is pleased to announce the promotion of Matt Galligan to General Manager of North Carolina.

Galligan most recently served as General Manager for Johnson Brothers of Iowa. Under his leadership, the Iowa market saw strengthened supplier and customer partnerships, enhanced operational execution, and a strong culture of collaboration and accountability.

“Matt’s leadership in Iowa has been exceptional,” said George Marsden, Chief Commercial Officer of Johnson Brothers. “His ability to lead high-performing teams, drive results, and build strong relationships has had a lasting impact. We’re excited to have him bring that same energy and vision to our North Carolina business.”

Since joining Johnson Brothers in 2015, Galligan has held several key leadership roles, including Sales Manager, Brand Manager, and Chain Manager. Prior to Johnson Brothers, he gained valuable experience in retail management with Target and Total Wine & More.

Galligan will continue to support the Iowa market during a transition period until a successor is named.
