SB 730 Michigan Senate · 2023-2024 Regular Session

Liquor: retail sales; displaying co-branded alcoholic beverages adjacent to certain products; prohibit. Amends 1998 PA 58 (MCL 436.1101 - 436.2303) by adding sec. 609k.

This bill prohibits retailers with sales floors larger than 2,500 square feet from placing co-branded alcoholic beverages next to youth-oriented snacks, cartoons, or similar items. For smaller stores, the law allows either the same prohibition or the option to post a specific age-restriction sign near those displays. The term "co-branded" refers to alcohol products that share logos or packaging with non-alcoholic drinks. Any fines for breaking these rules must be added to the state's liquor enforcement fund.
