The ABLE BC team is kicking off this year’s Liquor Industry Meetings in the Okanagan! Join us on Tuesday, April 9 at 4:00 pm at the Prestige Vernon Hotel.

ABLE BC’s Executive Director Jeff Guignard and Manager of Membership Services David Lough will be meeting with liquor industry professionals throughout the Okanagan from April 8-10.

We're pleased that Martin Brochu of Foodbuy Canada will be joining the ABLE BC Liquor Industry meetings! If you've been considering working with Foodbuy, now is the best time to learn more about the perks of their business. 

These meetings are open to owners, managers, and staff from any business in the private liquor industry. We are delighted to extend an invitation to all bars, pubs, hotels, liquor stores, manufacturers, and agents in the Okanagan. No need to be an ABLE BC member to attend!

Come learn about ABLE BC memberships, key issues we’re focusing on, and how you can get more involved in shaping BC’s private liquor industry. 

David and Jeff will be discussing these issues:

  • LRS temporary relocations
  • Benefits and services exclusive to ABLE BC members
  • Combatting rising inflation and labour shortages
  • Curtailing costs of increased crime and vandalism
  • Allowing cannabis consumption on bar and pub patios
  • The Minors as Agents Program
  • Shifting consumer trends
  • And more!

Is there something specific you’d like to discuss at this meeting? Email david@ablebc.ca to let us know.

Attending a Liquor Industry Meeting is a great way to learn more about ABLE BC, network with your peers and colleagues, and ensure your concerns are heard by your industry association.

We look forward to meeting you face-to-face to hear about the issues that matter most to you and your businesses!
