Liquor Buyback Option

The Ohio Department of Commerce is offering a one-time liquor buyback option to support bars and restaurants, particularly those that stocked up on high-proof liquor before St. Patrick’s Day. 

Businesses can return unopened, high-proof liquor products purchased in the last 30 days to the agency they bought them from. 

This opportunity is also extended to those with temporary (F2) permits for events scheduled between March 12 and April 6. 

Businesses with questions about this program should reach out directly to the Liquor Enterprise Service Center at 1-877-812-0013 or by emailing OhioLiquorInfo@Com.Ohio.gov.
