As shared last week, following the launch of our Local Industry Insights Report, we’re pleased to provide a deeper look at the trends that are shaping the Ontario beverage alcohol industry, the LCBO supports and programs having a meaningful impact, and Ipsos survey findings that offer insights into consumer and industry perceptions and behaviour.

The following video provides an overview of:

Looking ahead together

LCBO remains committed to working with local producers, industry associations, wholesale customers and government partners to strengthen Ontario’s beverage alcohol industry.

The findings from LCBO’s first Local Industry Insights Report and related survey research will help inform future consultations as we continue to refine our local support strategy, build on what is working well, and identify opportunities to better support growth across Ontario’s beverage alcohol sector.

For questions about the report or LCBO’s local support initiatives, please reach out to your contacts on the category or wholesale team.
