Matthew joins El Bandido Yankee after serving as President of Casa Komos Brand Group, where he directly managed the Superbird Tequila & RTD portfolio as well as Doladira Aperativo. His extensive career includes a decade at LVMH USA, where he served as Sales Director for New York and New Jersey before becoming Global Vice President of Belvedere for the Americas and Global Travel Retail.

He understands that our tequila isn't just a spirit, it's a lifestyle, empowering those who chase life unapologetically. He respects the tequila process, honors our roots, and is committed to our mission of delivering the best, uncompromised tequila across the border...where the makers 'salud' the drinker for a taste so smooth, it's criminal."
