As part of our commitment to best serve you and support your business during the busy holiday season, the Liquor Distribution Branch Wholesale Customer Centre (WCC) would like to advise customers of the following operational updates.
Email notifications of changes to holiday shipping schedules
Impacted customers will receive an email notification October 25 of any changes to their holiday shipping schedules. Reminder notices will also be emailed November 15 and November 29. If you are not contacted there should be no changes to your schedule.
Please be aware that the WCC will not be calling impacted customers as the email notifications serve as an effective and efficient method to provide customers with accurate documentation, they can reference during the busy holiday season.
