The increase in rates charged by the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board (PLCB) will be implemented in wine and spirits stores on Jan. 1, 2011, and in restaurants on Jan. 4, 2011. But whether these increases will be reflected in price changes for liquor store patrons is unknown. The Logistics, Transportation and Merchandise Factor (LTMF) fee, a processing and handling charge, will be increased after the PLCB evalu ated and made adjustments, said Stacy Kriedeman, PLCB deputy director of external affairs. Prices could increase any where from $0.35 to $1.15 per bot tle depending on the size and type of product purchased, Kriedeman said. For instance, the LTMF fee increase for a 1.75-liter bottle of spirits will increase from $1.55 to $2.30, wrote Joe Conti, the PLCB CEO, in an e-mail. - This is the first time we've raised [the LTMF fees] in 17 years," Kriedeman said. "We don't know what this means for consumers. It's up to the ven dors how this is handled." In an Aug. 20 e-mail to state wine and spirits vendors, Conti wrote that the rate increase as applied to wine and spirits, will not be put into effect until Jan. 4, 2011. The LTMF was changed to reflect "the costs associated with the handling and storage of wine and spirits products," in addition to the individual package sizes, Conti wrote. But the price changes for spe cial liquor orders such as wine purchased by restaurants will actually decrease starting Jan. 1, 2011, Kriedeman said. Federal law prevents individ ual stores froth collaborating on prices. It is unln►own how much the change will affect wine and spirits sales, or if the individual stores will increase prices at all, Kriedeman said. To e-mail reporter: zjgsol2@psu.edu
