The Salt Lake City Department for Alcoholic beverages in Utah is looking for “Business-minded in Utani” for the operation of retail alcohol stores and to help expand the proposals of the department for the more rural communities of the country.
Tiffany Classon, director of the department, said these types of stores are called “package agencies” and operators will manage the stores under three -year contracts with the state.
“Package agencies often look like small retail stores located in the countryside of Utah, where state -owned alcohol stores are scarce. These stores are embedded in the fabric of tightly woven small cities serving locals and tourists visiting the picturesque attractions of Utah.
Moreover, the package agencies will fall into one of the five different types.
- Works in connection with a resort environment such as a hotel or ski lodge, for example, and located in the resort property.
- Working in connection with another business where the main source of operator income is not from the sale of alcohol (setting up the store for alcohol amenities on site).
- Small alcohol stores, often located in rural areas where state -owned alcohol stores are not nearby.
- It is located in a licensed hotel or similar facility authorized to sell and supply alcohol to tenants or occupants (room service). This type of package agencies are not open to the public.
- Located in licensed alcohol production companies such as distillers, breweries and wineries, which allows the production business to sell the packaged product it produces.
There are a total of 37 contracts for package agencies available for interested candidates located in the following counties: Beaver, Cutting Elder, Cash, Carbon, Duke, Emery, Garfield, Iron, Yuab, Kane, Morgan, Rich, Salt Lake, San San, San , San Juan, Sanpete, Sevier, Summitt, Utah, Washington, Wayne and Weber.
Applications will be accepted online now until March 10. Applications will be reviewed in May before the department makes their final choice for three -year contracts.
Clason added that most package agencies have already been managing their business for years and expects that many will apply to continue working on renewed contracts.
“The Commission is expecting a healthy and competitive process in search of the best package agency operators to manage effective, customer-focused stores while complying with state safety and regulation requirements,” said Steve Handy, Commission Chairman of the department. “The Commission hopes to see the candidates who demonstrate good business management skills and understand the unique nature of the respective communities where they will work.”
