Liquor Stores for Sale

Explore Liquor Stores in Calgary

Calgary’s liquor retail market includes everything from small neighborhood stores to large-format outlets serving high-traffic commercial zones. Many listings feature long-term leases, modern shelving, walk-in coolers, and point-of-sale systems ready for immediate operation. Buyers benefit from steady year-round demand, especially in established communities and near major intersections. Locations with strong parking access and nearby food businesses or gas stations tend to outperform smaller, isolated stores.

Calgary Liquor Store Market Overview

The liquor retail sector in Calgary continues to perform steadily, supported by Alberta’s deregulated model that allows private ownership of retail liquor stores. Business valuations typically range from $250K to $1.2M, depending on size, revenue, and lease terms. High-volume stores near residential hubs such as Martindale, Seton, and Signal Hill maintain consistent sales, while smaller boutique shops focusing on craft beer and wine attract premium clientele. The province’s flat tax system and competitive wholesale pricing further strengthen profit margins.

Investment Insights

Owning a liquor store in Calgary offers strong operational stability and minimal staffing needs. Investors often favor these businesses for predictable income and low failure rates compared to other retail categories. Key factors influencing profitability include product mix, location visibility, and inventory control. Well-branded stores with loyalty programs and strong supplier relationships tend to outperform. For absentee owners, hiring experienced managers ensures consistent performance while maintaining compliance with AGLC regulations.

FAQ's

What are the licensing requirements for owning a liquor store in Calgary?
Buyers must obtain approval from the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis (AGLC), which regulates ownership transfers and store operations.

How profitable are liquor stores in Calgary?
Profit margins typically range from 15% to 25%, depending on size, volume, and pricing strategy. Stores with high foot traffic and strong product variety perform best.

Are liquor store hours regulated in Alberta?
Yes. Stores generally operate between 10 AM and 2 AM, but hours can vary based on municipal bylaws and business preference.

Can a liquor store be operated remotely or semi-absentee?
Yes. Many owners delegate day-to-day operations to trusted managers, though oversight and inventory audits remain essential.

What should buyers look for before purchasing a liquor store?
Key factors include lease terms, sales consistency, location traffic, and condition of coolers, shelving, and POS systems.

Are there restrictions on store proximity to competitors?
Yes. The AGLC enforces minimum distance requirements between liquor stores to prevent oversaturation in a single area.
