Grocery stores will have the chance to bid on six opportunities to apply for a licence to sell 100 percent B.C. wine, cider and sake off grocery store shelves the BC government announced.
The right to apply for these licences will be auctioned off individually online, with staggered bidding opportunities at BC Auction.
The first round of auctions is scheduled to take place in late April, and will ensure fairness and transparency while determining the eligibility for the first six licences.
