Ontario Beverage Alcohol updates and Initiatives

OCSA Beer in Convenience Stores

The opportunity and promise to have all convenience stores in Ontario selling beverage alcohol is still a reality as confirmed by the Ontario government.

The OCSA will represent our members when it comes to rolling out beer/wine into our channel and ensure membership will be first to enjoy this privilege.

Thousands of convenience stores want the right to sell, and this opportunity will take time to implement but rest assured the OCSA will work with the Convenience industry Council of Canada, OKBA, Craft Brewers Association and the Distillers Association in a coalition on this file to encourage movement on this file.

Collectively the Coalition has launched the following campaign in social media and within government circles to remind all that this is an ongoing promise to all and will strengthen the convenience sector in every community.

The OCSA has images available for you to use in your social media circles to spread the word.

Please take time to visit our campaign and remind politicians and customers that we are preparing for the sale in every community.

The new website is as follows:

convenienceandchoice.ca
