Temporary Flexibility in Alcohol Display and Transfer Regulations for Licensed Grocery Stores

The government has announced temporary regulatory changes affecting alcohol sales in licensed grocery stores. These changes include allowing licensed grocery stores to display alcohol in multiple areas of the store, subject to certain limits. Additionally, there is a temporary provision permitting the transfer of wine and spirits between locations owned by the same entity or affiliated licensees. These measures aim to provide operational flexibility and assist in managing inventory and supply consistency for bars and restaurants.
