Section 1: General Information

The Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) issues a licence that allow you to deliver liquor to customers for a fee. Licences are valid for either two or four years, at which time you must apply for a licence renewal.

A Licence to Deliver Liquor allows a licensee to deliver liquor purchased or obtained from the Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) or Brewers Retail Inc. (The Beer Store), any manufacturer’s on-site, licensed grocery stores on behalf of a customer or off-site retail store or an eligible liquor licensed establishment to individuals for a fee. A licence holder is not selling liquor – the licensee is an agent for another person who is legally entitled to purchase liquor or the liquor licensed establishment or retail store that is directing the delivery of an order to a customer. Liquor may not be purchased or obtained prior to receiving an order.
