Pathway to Selling Alcohol Safely

PATHWAY to Selling Alcohol Safely Training and Compliance

An In-Store Employee Training and Compliance Program featuring updated information according to the Ohio Revised Code and Best Practices procedures.

The updated PATHWAYS to Selling Alcohol Safely Training program includes new features and information on best practices for off-premise as well as on-premise (in-store) sales and sampling.


Important Facts to Know…

  • Every store that sells alcoholic beverages is susceptible to a citation for violating the law.
  • Most mistakes that occur involving the sale of alcoholic beverages could have been avoided with proper training.
  • You and your employees can be held responsible for selling alcohol illegally. This can mean criminal charges, court time, large fines and even incarceration.
  • You can’t afford to have employees who are not well-trained in this area.
  • Teenage drinking and drunk driving are serious problems that affect all of our communities. Grocers can be a part of the solution to these problems by taking a strong interest in reducing incidents of alcohol sales to underage or intoxicated customers.
