I have the capability, reliability and qualifications to hold a liquor license because:

“We, The Natural Wine Company, are currently a licensed Arizona liquor wholesaler in good standing. We are applying for a new license because we are moving our Phoenix warehouse location, and the existing license is not transferable to the new premises. I have experience operating a licensed wholesale wine business and understand the responsibilities that come with holding a liquor license, including compliance with Arizona liquor laws, record keeping, purchasing only from authorized sources, selling only to properly licensed accounts, and maintaining orderly business operations.”
