My impression is that a large portion of the industry is already structured as distilleries that actually make the liquor, like MGP, and a bunch of labels that put their names on it (each different). Like how many name-brand items across grocery stores are all actually made by the same company.
You might be good at making whisky but not that great at marketing. Either way the market has a desire for generic, unlabeled product and people go in to fill the need.

because they may sell the same product, yes, but not compete. there will always be someone starting a new vineyard, distillery or whatever.
it's sort of like banks vs vc funds. both lend money to companies, but still they are not competing against each other.
