HARRISBURG (Newsradio 1020 KDKA) - In an effort to help mitigate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak, the PA Liquor Control Board Announced Monday that all Fine Wine & Good Spirits Stores, Licensee Service Centers and e-Commerce sales will close.
The closure will be indefinite beginning at 9 p.m. on Tuesday, March 17.
Online sales stopped at 5 p.m. Monday.
"This was a tremendously difficult decision to make, and we understand the disruption our store closures will have on consumers and licensees across the commonwealth," said Board Chairman Tim Holden in a statement. "But in these uncertain and unprecedented times, the public health crisis and mitigation effort must take priority over the sale of wine and spirits, as the health and safety of our employees and communities is paramount."
The board says they will reevaluate at the end of March.
