The Beer Store plans to close six more locations by Nov 2, 2025, adapting to market changes amid Ontario's expansion of alcohol sales to corner stores, officials said.
- The Beer Store revealed plans to shut six additional retail outlets across Ontario on November 2, 2025, with half of these closures occurring within the Greater Toronto and Hamilton region.
- The closures follow ongoing market modernization efforts and a provincial agreement that expanded alcohol sales to corner stores in Ontario.
- Affected stores include locations in Mississauga, Pickering, Niagara Falls, London, Mattawa, and Sudbury, with the retailer making repeated closure announcements since early 2025.
- Ozzie Ahmed, who oversees retail operations at The Beer Store, acknowledged that the locations for beer sales and returns in Ontario are evolving due to updates in the market, and he affirmed the company’s commitment to supporting its staff during this transition.
- These closures contribute to over 60 stores closing or scheduled for closure this year, reflecting the retailer's adaptation to shifting market conditions in Ontario's alcohol sales landscape.
