W. Va. Liquor Bids Set To Open
WEST VIRGINIA....
West Virginia changed its retail liquor sales business in 1991 when it eliminated state liquor stores and put state retail liquor licenses up for bid every 10 years. This coming week, bids for the remaining 135 licenses will be opened and reviewed. Forty-six free standing liquor retailers accepted the purchase option last year and are not part of the bidding process. Bids for the remaining 135 licenses began February 22nd, with bids being random throughout the state. The state Retail Liquor Licensing Board is overseeing the process.
