11 CSR 70-2.230 - Multiple Store Retailers
PURPOSE: To revise this section, which establishes procedures for storage and transfer from a central warehouse by multiple licensed intoxicating liquor licensees, to reflect the elimination of Chapter 312, RSMo, regulating nonintoxicating beer. The division's name will be changed to Division of Alcohol and Tobacco Control in all applicable sections.
(1) This regulation
applies to all persons or entities who own and operate more than one (1)
premises licensed to sell intoxicating liquor at retail.
(2) Any person or entity set forth in section
(1), with the permission of the supervisor of alcohol and tobacco control, may
designate one (1) or more places as a central warehouse to which intoxicating
liquors ordered and purchased by a person or entity from licensed wholesalers
may be delivered by licensed wholesalers and at which intoxicating liquors so
owned by a person or entity may be stored.
(3) Any person or entity set forth in section
(1) owning and storing intoxicating liquors in a central warehouse as provided
in section (1) may transfer all or any part of the intoxicating liquors so
stored from the central warehouse to any premises licensed to sell intoxicating
liquors at retail which is owned and operated by the same person or entity and
which is located in the same county in which the central warehouse is located,
or is located in a county adjoining and contiguous to the county in which the
central warehouse is located, but not otherwise; except that private brands of
intoxicating liquor owned and sold exclusively by only one (1) person or entity
as set forth in section (1), and brands not privately owned but sold
exclusively by only one (1) person or entity may be transferred from the
warehouse to any licensed premises in the state owned by a person or entity,
who is the exclusive retail dealer of the brand; provided, however, that malt
liquor is not transferred from the central warehouse to another licensed
premises unless the licensed premises is located in the same designated
geographic area of the wholesaler from whom the malt liquor was purchased. The
City of St. Louis is deemed to be a county for the purposes of this
regulation.
(4) Any person or
entity set forth in section (1) desiring to transfer intoxicating liquor from a
premises licensed to sell intoxicating liquors at retail-owned and controlled
by a person or entity to another premises so licensed and owned and controlled
by the same person or entity, should first notify the supervisor of alcohol and
tobacco control in writing describing the type, brand, size containers, and
amount of intoxicating liquors to be so transferred, the license numbers of the
premises from which and to which the transfer is to be made, and the true
reason for the transfer and no transfer may be made until the supervisor of
alcohol and tobacco control has assented to the transfer or until three (3)
full days (not counting Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays) has elapsed after the
receipt of the notice by the supervisor of alcohol and tobacco control during
which time the supervisor did not refuse the transfer.
