Receipt of all required documents establishes the priority in which you
will be scheduled for presentation. Liquor Purchasing will notify
suppliers of their scheduled presentation times. Presentations will
normally be scheduled approximately once a month at Liquor Control Board
Headquarters, 3000 Pacific Avenue SE, Olympia, Washington. It is not
absolutely essential for a supplier representative to be present at the
presentation in order for a product to be considered for listing.

Suppliers will normally be limited to a maximum of two items per presentation.
Presentations will be limited to an absolute maximum of 10 minutes. No listing
decisions will be made by the Board during these listing presentations. Board
action will be taken at a regularly scheduled Board meeting following the
listing presentation. If an item is not accepted by the Board for listing, it
may not be presented again for at least one year. If an item has been
de-listed by the Board, it may not be presented for re-listing for at least two
years from the time it was de-listed. If you wish to submit samples, we prefer
that you send them at the same time or shortly after you send the required
documents. This would normally allow the product to be tasted prior to the
scheduled presentation. No more than a total of 3 liters of spirits or 3
liters of wines can be accepted (any combination of sizes totaling 3 liters of
spirits or 3 liters of wines). If wines are available only in a size larger
than 3 liters, one sample size larger than 3 liters may be submitted.
All required listing materials and samples should be sent to the attention of Purchasing
Services, Washington State Liquor Control Board, P. O. Box 43096, Olympia,
Washington 98504-3096.
If you have any questions regarding these listing presentations or need
any forms, please contact Liquor Purchasing at (360) 664-1652.
