Beverage and Brewery Drivers Local 67 Pension Fund Retirement Plan
Sponsored by Board of Trustees of Beverage Drivers Local Union No. 67, Pittsburgh, PA
Form 5500 information is as filed by the plan administrator with the Department of Labor and may be amended. Figures reflect the plan year shown, not current balances. Form 5500 contains no individual account balances. Look up the original filing at EFAST2.
In the plan year ending 31 Jul 2025, Beverage and Brewery Drivers Local 67 Pension Fund Retirement Plan covered 342 participants and held $1.6M in net assets. The plan is a defined benefit pension plan sponsored by Board of Trustees of Beverage Drivers Local Union No. 67 of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It is a multiemployer plan, maintained under collective bargaining agreements with more than one employer.
Net assets came to $4,791 per participant, well below the $87,254 median for defined benefit plans with 250 to 499 participants and well below the $94,853 median for defined benefit plans in transportation and warehousing. The figure is an average across everyone in the plan, including former employees with small balances; Form 5500 holds no individual account data.
Employer contributions were $227K for the year and benefits paid were $810K. In a defined benefit plan the employer's contribution follows funding rules rather than a match formula, so it can swing widely from year to year.
Schedule C lists 3 service provider organisations paid $5,000 or more, with reported compensation of $105K: $306 per participant, well below the same-size median of $413. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $116K. Schedule C does not capture every cost: fees netted from fund returns and fees the employer pays directly are outside it.
Across the filings on record, net assets went from $17.0M in 2009 to $1.6M in 2024 (down 90%), and participants from 582 to 342 (down 41%).

The filing reports $227,240 in employer contributions for the year; the median for plans of the same type and size was $11,032 in plan year 2024. Form 5500 reports the total only. It does not state the match formula, and the per-participant figure is an average, not any one person's contribution.

The same-size median among plans reporting any Schedule C compensation was $413 per participant. Administrative expenses on Schedule H were $115,547. Investment costs deducted inside mutual funds and other pooled vehicles are not itemised on Form 5500, so these figures are a floor rather than a full cost.
