The Beer Store, Ontario’s biggest beer retailer, is shutting down 11 locations by the end of September. This is the fourth time in two months they’ve announced 10 or more store closures.
How is it that the Beer Store holds this market condition where they face no competition except for the Liquor Control Board?
The article seems to take a critical stance against the Ontario government's decision. It would be better to present the side too that there is potential benefit to the consumer by having more competition and more access. However potentially losing some control on ensuring the alcohol stays out of the hands of minors.
Yea that number seems waaaaay too small. Probably need a correction. My small town liquor store probably serves that many customers per year with only 1 location.

Beer Store only served 13,000 customers? No wonder they are going broke!!
