If you hold a Retail Liquor license and want to sale wholesale to liquor by the drink license holders, you will need to provide the following to the SCDOR Alcohol Beverage License Division:
- A copy of your Basic Permit issued by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (TTB): This permit must show the location information and indicate approval to be a Distilled Spirits Wholesaler.
- Your original license for the Retail Liquor Store: We will reissue your license with the indication that you are a licensed retailer dealer with a wholesaler’s basic permit issued pursuant to the Federal Alcohol Act. This is also known as a Class B wholesaler.
SECTION 61-6-1636. Purchase by, and delivery to, liquor by the drink licensees.
(A) A person licensed by this article for sale and use for on-premises consumption shall purchase alcoholic liquor for sale by the drink from a licensed retail dealer with a wholesaler's basic permit issued pursuant to the Federal Alcohol Administration Act in any size bottle, except 1.75 liter size bottles.
(B) A licensed retail dealer with a wholesaler's basic permit issued pursuant to the Federal Alcohol Administration Act may deliver, in sealed containers, alcoholic liquor in any size bottle, except 1.75 liter size bottles, to a person licensed by this article to sell alcoholic liquors for on-premises consumption.
The previous license must also be turned in before the new license will be reissued with the Wholesaler marking. You may mail your change to us or come into the District Office to have the new license printed.
