Quebec auditor general says liquor corporation could get better deals
Quebec’s auditor general says the province’s liquor corporation isn’t doing enough to get the best prices.
Guylaine Leclerc believes more can be done when it comes to volume discounts as well as revenues from in-store product placement.
In her annual report tabled Wednesday, Leclerc also noted the liquor monopoly has not modified its price markup structure over the years.
The report said the liquor corporation has not taken into account the importance of store promotions, which totalled $129 million in 2014-15.
Leclerc also pointed out a discrepancy between when stores are busiest and when they are most staffed.
