Liquor Control Boards

Liquor Control Boards are government agencies responsible for regulating the retail and wholesale sale of alcohol within a region. They oversee licensing, ensure compliance with laws, and often operate or control stores that sell liquor. Their goal is to promote responsible consumption, reduce illegal sales, and generate revenue for public programs. In some areas, they have a monopoly on retail sales, while in others, they regulate private businesses. Overall, they serve as the primary authority on alcohol regulation, balancing public safety with economic interests.
