(WHTM) — The GIANT Company announced today that they intend to sell ready-to-drink cocktail products in beer and wine departments at almost all Pennsylvania GIANT and MARTIN'S stores.
Legislation passed this summer introduced new Pennsylvania liquor laws, expanding the sale of canned cocktails to non-state-owned retailers.
According to GIANT, the company previously applied for and received permits to sell ready-to-drink liquor products at 138 Pennsylvania stores starting today.
"Our stores have been a destination for beer and wine since 2011 and 2016, respectively, and we have heard from our customers about the convenience of being able to grab ready-to-drink cocktails while grocery shopping too," said Rebecca Lupfer, the Senior Vice President and Chief Merchant of the GIANT Company. "We’re excited to expand our offering to customers starting today, with canned cocktails rolling out to 138 stores across Pennsylvania."
GIANT said stores will begin displaying ready-to-drink cocktail products today and continue to add varieties over the coming weeks.
