Our Story

John Underwood’s vision began in college while writing a thesis on how to organize and operate a business in the Beverage Manufacturing Industry. In 1963, his vision became a reality when he started Bar None in a small 600 sq. foot building located in Santa Ana, California. The facility went through some expansions over the next few years, but it was in 1968 that he moved his company to Tustin, the heart of Orange County, CA, where Bar None occupied more than 10,000 sq. feet.

By 1978, Bar None had outgrown their facility and decided to purchase land in Tustin from Santa Fe Railroad. This enabled them to build a new, much larger facility to their own specifications, including a rail spur for shipping and receiving purposes.

Today, Bar None continues to thrive as a successful multi-generational family owned business. John Underwood’s legacy continues through his daughters, grandsons, and an excellent team of long-term employees. Together, they hold true to their belief… Supply and Demand the Best! … Bar None.
