啤酒店正在关闭另外7家商店,由于竞争和一项省级协议,自2024年以来已关闭了100多家商店。 The Beer Store is closing 7 more stores, part of over 100 since 2024 due to competition and a provincial agreement.

安大略最大的酒精零售商Beer Store正在关闭另外7家商店,使2024年5月以来的总关闭量超过100家。 The Beer Store, Ontario's largest alcohol retailer, is closing seven more stores, bringing total closures since May 2024 to over 100. 在安大略省《早期执行协议》推动下,转角商店和加油站销售啤酒和快到饮料的酒精的竞争加剧,此后,这项行动也随之而来。 The move follows increased competition from corner stores and gas stations selling beer and ready-to-drink alcohol, driven by Ontario’s Early Implementation Agreement. 该公司由Molson-Coors、Labatt和Sleeman拥有,现在只有不到320家商店,接近2025年前省政府协定规定的300家商店的最低数量。 The company, owned by Molson-Coors, Labatt, and Sleeman, now has fewer than 320 stores, near the 300-store minimum required by a provincial government agreement through 2025. 关闭引起了对失业和可能价格上涨的关切。 The closures have raised concerns about job losses and potential price increases. 啤酒店鼓励顾客继续每年将超过16亿个酒集装箱运回其余地点或空置的酒商,并实行新的省级规则,要求所有卖酒的杂货店从2026年1月1日起接受酒后退货。 The Beer Store encourages customers to continue returning over 1.6 billion alcohol containers annually at its remaining locations or empty return dealers, with a new provincial rule requiring all alcohol-selling grocery stores to accept returns starting January 1, 2026.
