The good news is that New Yorkers will continue to have access to the same great wines and spirits that we are able to offer to our customers in other states. ![]() Wegmans, which conducts its business with the very highest integrity, immediately cooperated and corrected the alleged violation. The NYSLA recently informed us of their position that only a licensed New York wholesaler can perform some of the steps involved in bringing these products to the New York market. In fact, they are carried by stores that have no connection to Wegmans whatsoever. New York State law does not permit us to sell these products, but wholesalers we work with have made them available to all New York State liquor stores. This includes our wine and spirits business, which has grown tremendously in our stores outside of New York State. Our job as a retailer is to seek out unique products that offer the best value to our customers. It’s unfortunate that the SLA chose to credit complaints from competitors of these liquor stores over the actual facts presented to them during the investigation. What these stores have in common is that each is individually owned by a Wegman family member, and each owner is trying to run their store like we run Wegmans, with low prices, great selection and great service. "We categorically deny the New York State Liquor Authority’s assertion that we exercise control over any liquor store in New York. ![]() The SLA investigation determined Wegman’s Food Corporation, which is not licensed to traffic in wine or spirits in New York State, was exercising significant control over Amherst St Wines & Liquors, in addition to four other affiliated stores including Whitehouse Liquor & Wine in Rochester, Johnson City Liquor & Wine in Johnson City, Pittsford Century Wines & Spirits in Rochester, and Liquor City Wine & Liquors in Fayetteville.Ī Wegmans spokesperson issued this statement: Your food and wine & spirits orders will be two separate charges on your preferred method of payment and delivered separately. Wine & Liquor are separately owned and operated businesses. The SLA received a complaint that a liquor store, Amherst Wine Partners LLC, doing business as “Amherst St Wines & Liquors” in Buffalo, was allowing Wegman’s Food Corporation to effectively control their business by managing purchasing and pricing decisions, as well as the relationship between Amherst Wine and various wholesalers. Free delivery offer is valid through 1/6/24. The Amherst Street Wines and Liquors in the only store in the Buffalo area to receive the fine. In addition, the SLA accepted offers totaling $375,000 from the five affiliated liquor stores. The SLA accepted $750,000 to settle eight charges from Wegmans.
