BC grocery stores eager to get into the liquor trade will soon have the chance to bid on six licences to sell wine and cider, but none of Oliver’s stores appear ready to take the plunge.
The BC government recently announced a series of online auctions, which will start in late April and give grocers the chance to bid on an opportunity to apply for one of the licences to sell 100 per cent B.C. wine, cider and saké. According to a recent press release, the eventual goal is to make 18 licences available.
