Ferolito, Vultaggio & Sons
 PROFILE
At Ferolito, Vultaggio & Sons, image is everything. Distinctive bottle and can designs distinguish the company's beverages -- including AriZona iced teas and fruit drinks, Blue Luna iced coffee, Mississippi Mud beers, and Palm Beach malt liquors -- from the competition. Its drinks are sold in Canada and the US. Ferolito, Vultaggio's fractious history includes flouting distribution norms and offending Native Americans with its Crazy Horse malt liquor. Since the iced-tea market has cooled, the firm has turned to more conventional distribution agreements with major retailers. It has also bitten into snack foods with its Blue Luna chips and salsa. Co-founders John Ferolito and Don Vultaggio own the company.
