O’Malley Beverage LED Lighting Case Study THE HISTORY O’Malley Beverage is a locally owned distributor of premium brand beverages. The Anheuser-Busch wholesaler in Lawrence has been locally owned and operated since the end of prohibition.

O’Malley Beverage wanted to turn their challenges into opportunity. They decided to work with the LED Source Lawrence team to maximize savings while improving lighting output, provide uniformed light that maintains output over time, and reduce overall operating expenses.

In 2005, Kevin O’Malley and Pat O’Malley purchased the Anheuser-Busch wholesaler business from Classic Eagle Distributing. Having a long history in beverage distribution, the O’Malleys’ welcomed the opportunity to further expand their enterprise. THE CHALLENGE O’Malley Beverage is a loading dock with high ceilings and outdated metal halide lamps that are difficult to replace. In addition, workers had to adjust from the low light levels in the dock, to the refrigerated storage,where light levels are higher.
