If your Jurisdiction is considering liquor privatization or outsourcing, Connect Logistics Services can provide you with expert large-scale third-party liquor distribution and logistics services.
Connect Logistics Services is the sole wholesale-level distributor authorized by the Alberta Gaming and Liquor Commission (AGLC) to distribute liquor products in Alberta. Fourteen years of experience in large-scale third-party liquor distribution combined with the global resources of Exel, make Connect Logistics Services the perfect choice to deliver wholesale-level third party liquor distribution and logistics services to Jurisdictions across North America.

Connect Logistics Services operates its liquor distribution warehouse under a modified wholesaling model. Unlike conventional liquor wholesalers, the company does not purchase or take possession of the product in its warehouse. Instead, it accepts liquor products on a consignment basis for distribution throughout Alberta and other jurisdictions within Canada.

Licensed Liquor Buyers then order product through Connect Logistics Services, which assembles and ships the orders. Buyers make payment directly to the Alberta Gaming and Liquor Commission. The distribution system is funded through product-stocking fees paid by suppliers and agents, and by order and shipping fees collected from Buyers.

This liquor distribution model offers two main advantages over the conventional liquor wholesaling and distribution model. First, it gives liquor suppliers direct control over which products they make available to Buyers. Second, it eliminates the need for the warehouse operator to invest in inventory.
