Liquor Distribution Branch
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Liquor Distribution Branch (LDB) is one of the two governmental bodies responsible for regulating and monitoring the liquor industry in the Canadian province of British Columbia. The other is the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch (LCLB).
The LDB is the only organization allowed to purchase, import, and distribute alcoholic beverages in British Columbia. They employ more than 3,500 people, and operate 215 government liquor stores under the BC Liquor Stores name, found all across the province.
BC Liquor Stores' prices are uniform throughout all locations across the province.
Privately-operated liquor stores in BC also sell liquor and receive a 13 per cent discount off the government liquor store prices and set their own retail prices.
The head office is located in Vancouver, with one distribution centre each in Vancouver and Kamloops, British Columbia.
