USA, CA: Full Circle Brewing Company announces closure by the end of the year
Full Circle Brewing Company, a Fresno brewery, announced it is closing its doors by the end of the year on December 31st, KMPH reported on December 7.
It is currently located in Fresno's brewery district.
It says it will be moving to its production warehouse with plans to bring it to life again.
The company's CEO Arthur Moye and COO David Apkarian explain how they are merging operations for a bigger, better venue for 2025.
"Right now, we're operating two separate businesses. So, merging these two locations allows us to have one business under one roof," Moye said.
Full Circle will be relocating just a few blocks away on F street near Ventura Street in Fresno.
Moye says it's where their brewery was born.
Moye says it will continue to operate as a brewery and an entertainment venue but now combined in the larger space.
The warehouse is producing more than 25,000 barrels a year of their craft beer.
Although the business started in Fresno, Moye says, it now has footprints all over California and other states throughout the United States.
He says the goal in 2025 is to expand brewing, production and distribution capabilities with more staff on site as the company continues to grow.
"We're really, really excited to have everybody come back down and be a part of it. Again, all under one roof, it's very, very exciting for us," Apkarian said.
If you are not familiar with Full Circle's craft beer, you can find it at a number of retailers including the SaveMart Center, Oracle Park, and Disney's California Adventure to name a few.
According to Moye, Full Circle is also known to be the first largest black owned full production brewing company in the United States.
That's after partnering with San Francisco's Speakeasy Ales and Lagers in 2023.
