Partner With Us To Return Craft Brewery Tours and More To Nashville, TN!

Help Us To Reopen Nashville Brews Cruise!


Mario Lemieux et al. posing for the cameraNashville, Tennesee 

We are always looking for people that have an entrepreneurial spirit to join our Brews Cruise family of owners and operators.

Of course, Nashville is an amazing city with an incredibly strong tourism draw that also has a lively craft alcohol industry—that’s huge for a successful location in the Brews Cruise family.

We know all about this because we previously had a team running Brews Cruise brewery tours and more in Nashville. They both left the tourism industry a couple of years ago, and we are now ready to restart with a new operator.

Maybe This Is You!

Our ideal partner for this is passionate about educating guests about the history of Nashville and Tennesee.

A strong knowledge of the craft alcohol industry in the region is a huge plus. as well as the ability to teach your thirsty guests different aspects of craft alcohol production.

Past experience in customer service, hospitality-based businesses, or tourism companies is a huge plus.

 

 

What Are You Asking For?

Let’s be clear: we are not offering franchise opportunities.

If you are selected as our partner in Nashville, we offer you a license grant to operate our brand in the Greater Nashville area for five years.

This is your own business to own and operate, and you are allowed to do that in the manner that you wish.

It’s a proven concept, and our business model and the direct support from our operations team will allow you to be successful right away.

One of the major benefits of becoming part of the Brews Cruise family is that you’ll have exclusive rights within your territory to our U.S. Trademark protected brand name and all the Intellectual Property that goes with it.

Now that is going to save you a ton of time, energy, and money!

What We Require From You

Of course like any good relationship, it’s a two-way street. So we are looking for licensees who can provide:

    • An entrepreneurial drive and motivation.
    • The ability to operate independently and conduct business practices professionally.
    • A clean personal and professional background and credit history.
    • A passion and interest in providing educational and insightful tours and activities that highlight your local craft producers.
    • An ability and interest in maintaining positive relations with tour partners and your local community. 
    • Positive  engagement and maintain communications with us and the Brews Cruise family
    • A level of flexibility to contribute to Brews Cruise family events that sometimes occur via video often outside normal working hours (we do have a few time zones to juggle).
    • An enduring commitment to continual improvement and growth of your own business.
