Grocery Stores with “LCBO Express”: Expanding Wine Retailing in Onratio
Charles Sousa, Finance Minister of Ontario, declared on April 1, 2014 to open LCBO locations in grocery stores. It is planned to open initially 10 LCBO Express kiosks by the end of year 2014. These kiosks would sell Ontario craft beer and VQA (Vintners Quality Alliance) wines.
The hours of business of LCBO Express kiosks would remain
same as LCBO. At the same time, there would be a separate checkout location for
those buying LCBO products against grocery items. This will allow shoppers to
buy groceries and wine together, making it easier and convenient for shoppers.
The LCBO has already issued a ‘Request for Proposals’ for up
to seven LCBO Express kiosks. The condition is that, all retailers who are
interested in must be capable to spare at least 2000 square feet of space
within their stores. Also, the proximity
to rest of LCBO locations would be considered to open LCBO Express kiosks.
