Sacramento Liquor Licenses are managed by the California Department of Alcohol Beverage Control. If you are currently in Sacramento looking to buy or sell a liquor license, you may need to review the different types of permits available. Permits to sell or buy can vary on the type of business you are running. Some licenses may require no less than half of your income to come from food sales and other licenses are solely for selling containers that are to be consumed only off the premises.

The whole process is very expensive and can set you back as long as 4 months. In order to make the whole process hassle-free, you have to gear yourself with the right knowledge about the ins and outs of the open market as well as the requirements needed by the California Department of Alcohol and Beverage Control (ABC). Without the proper information, you can risk losing valuable time and money as a buyer or seller.

Liquor License Agents are made up of professionals that are experienced in finding legitimate and qualified buyers and sellers of liquor licenses. We also offer brokerage, facilitating, and reviewing applications for a liquor license with the ABC. Our agency is NALCP-certified and has over 10 years of experience in the hospitality industry. To add to that, our services are 30% cheaper compared to our competitors. So, whether you are planning to sell or buy liquor licenses, we assure you that we can be of big help.

Type 20 & 21 Liquor
License

Both Type 20 and Type 21 licenses are designated for the sale of alcohol for off-premises consumption. Minors are allowed on the premises of businesses that are issued this type of license. The Type 20 license is issued for the sale of packaged beer and wine, while the Type 21 is designated for the sale of general packaged alcohol, including spirits and liquor.

Type 41 & 47 Liquor
License

Probably some of the most common types of liquor licenses, the Type 41 and Type 47 licenses are specifically designated for businesses that primarily serve food. The California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control states that, in order to be issued a Type 41 or Type 47 license, your facility must be a “bona fide eating place.” 51% of the total sales should come from food.

Type 48 Liquor
License

Type 48 licenses differ from Type 41 and Type 47 licenses as they are used in establishments that are not primarily eateries. Type 48 Licenses are typically issued for bars and nightclubs. The Type 48 license permits the holder to serve liquor until 2:00 AM. Unique to this license, the Type 48 allows closed containers of beer or wine to be sold for “off-premises” consumption.

Sacramento County Liquor License Facts

Upon submitting your application, a notice will be served at the location of your business. This is a courtesy notification to notify the people in the area of your intention to sell liquor. If there are no qualms received about your application, ABC will review all the information you wrote on your application. In some cases, depending on the local liquor policy, you may need to get a separate license if you intend to serve liquor on your premises. Make sure you are aware of these policies before you apply.

ABC, however, may not automatically accommodate your application and issue you a Sacramento Liquor License especially if your county has exceeded their quota of liquor licenses. If you ever find yourself in this rut, you will have to purchase your license in the open market. This option is a more expensive one, but it is your only option given the circumstances.

Regardless of whether you are looking to be issued a license by the ABC or going for the open market, rest assured that our professional team at Liquor License Agents can assist you through whatever process.
