2024 is a big year for ABLE BC! While our history stretches back nearly 50 years to 1975 with the founding of the BC Neighbourhood Pub Owners’ Association, ABLE BC as it is known today was incorporated in March 2004.
20 years ago, the BC Liquor Licensees & Retailers’ Association (formerly the BC Neighbourhood Pub Owners’ Association), the BC & Yukon Hotels’ Association, and the BC Cabaret Owners’ Association merged to create BC’s Alliance of Beverage Licensees (ABLE BC). The new association united the voices of the province’s liquor licensees, creating a strong impact on government and ensuring our success when fighting for members’ needs.
Fast forward to today and ABLE BC’s mandate has remained the same: we advocate on behalf of liquor (and now cannabis retail) licensees with all levels of government for business-friendly policy and regulation.
Come out and celebrate 20 years of successful advocacy, industry empowerment, and protecting members' investments!
