Hope Cortez

2022 Fuel Your Dreams Award Winner - SC

My name is Hope Cortez and I have worked at Republic National Distributing Company for 15 years. I worked as a Sales Rep and District Manager on the Retail Wine team in Austin, Texas before relocating with the company to South Carolina. When I relocated I transitioned into a Regional Training Manager position and was most recently promoted to a Chain Manager role for the retail team. I love this industry and the chain side of the business.
