about us

At Alepat Festival, we bring a century of collective industry experience to South Australia’s liquor trade. As a premium wholesaler, we combine deep market knowledge, strong relationships and a passion for exceptional products to deliver a curated portfolio of iconic Australian and international brands.

Our business was founded through the partnership of Victorian industry leaders Carlo Travaglini, Adam Sebastiano and Frank Ciampa of Alepat Taylor, together with South Australian liquor pioneer Don Totino. Don’s journey—from migrating from Italy in 1968 to building the highly successful Festival City Food & Liquor—forms a cornerstone of who we are today, shaping our commitment to quality service and genuine partnership.

Rooted in family, tradition and shared Italian heritage, our team carries forward a deep respect for authenticity and craftsmanship. This is reflected in our portfolio, which spans Italy from north to south, featuring celebrated producers such as Pasqua, Fantini, Bellussi, Lucano and the original Cipriani Bellini, alongside standout Australian offerings including Don’s own Totino Wines from the Adelaide Hills.

With a centrally located Albert Park warehouse, daily delivery and a dedicated sales team, we’re proud to support South Australian customers with reliability, expertise and products crafted with integrity.
