Thank you for your interest in Agency expansion, as it is a top priority for the Division of Liquor Control. Currently, we are not accepting applications. Application information will be posted to this page as the Division evaluates and recommends additional opportunities for expansion of new Contract Liquor Agencies. Please continue checking this page for more information.
The application to operate a Contract Liquor Agency can be found here: Apply For An Agency (Store). All individual forms necessary to complete an application transaction are located below. This webpage will be updated with available Agency locations when the Division determines expansion opportunities are appropriate.
NOTE: IF THERE ARE NO AGENCIES AVAILABLE, YOU CANNOT SUBMIT AN AGENCY APPLICATION.
In the future, the decision to expand and where to locate expansion Agencies will be based on market analysis and industry data. Several factors are measured when considering expansion, such as demographic data, market opportunity, revenue potential, population growth density and proximity to existing Agencies. The Division utilizes this criteria to make objective and data driven decisions. Ultimately, the goals are to provide reliable revenues for Ohio economic development initiatives and improve service to retail clients.
