News Release November 18, 2013

Gotta catch those hardened criminals and their Coronas for sale.

RICHMOND – Fiscal year 2013 marked the Virginia Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control’s (ABC) 15th consecutive record-setting year for sales, with gross sales surging to $769 million, up $35 million from the previous year, and profits rising to $134 million, an increase of $2 million over last year.
Retail sales grew 5.5 percent and licensee sales (sales to restaurants) increased 1.5 percent from fiscal year 2012. ABC profits combined with state taxes, sales tax, and wine and beer taxes, resulted in an all-time high of $370 million transferred to Virginia’s general fund, up $10 million from last year.
