Prohibits certain fees from being imposed by licensed wholesalers
This bill prohibits licensed alcohol wholesalers in New York from charging retailers any fees beyond the purchase price of alcoholic beverages. It directly affects licensed retailers by preventing wholesalers from imposing additional costs like "handling" or "distribution" fees. The law requires wholesalers to charge only the stated price of the product, with no extra charges allowed. The bill takes effect 90 days after enactment, requiring necessary regulatory updates before that date.
