These two liquor stores are located in a town of 7,000 people, the shopping and banking hub of a 30-mile radius community in the southwestern portion of the state.

One of the liquor stores is located near the corporate headquarters of a major chain, which creates a lot of traffic, and increases number of walk-in customers. This store has multiple revenue streams which include liquor, wine, beer, cigarettes, magazines, soft drinks, mixers, snack items, lottery and powerball sales. The liquor store was established by current owners in 1991 with gross revenues of $300,000 and has continued to grow yearly to $1,480,000.

The original downtown location was established in 1953 and became a fixture in the downtown area with a well-established reputation for its friendly service, product availability, and competitive pricing. Through ownership changes and remodels, it has maintained and grown a loyal clientele.
