Smoking bans, tax and fee increases, lowering the legal BAC level below .08, sprinkler installation mandates, mandatory deposit, keg registration, underage sting operations
The list goes on. The retail businesses in our industry are a target. The only effective way to protect the businesses in our industry is to join together in one united force. The Illinois Licensed Beverage Association is the advocate for retail businesses engaged in the sale or service of beverage alcohol. A not-for-profit business trade association, the ILBA is the oldest retail hospitality industry business trade association in the nation, having been founded in 1880. Over 2,500 retail businesses throughout Illinois are members of the ILBA. Taverns, nightclubs, restaurants, bowling centers, fraternal organizations, hotel and motel lounges, gas stations, convenience stores and package stores comprise ILBA's membership. The ILBA's mission is to improve the business climate for all Illinois retail businesses licensed to serve or sell beverage alcohol. ILBA dues are intentionally very inexpensive so that even the smallest retail business can easily afford to join - and 70 percent of ILBA dues are tax deductible. The strength of our industry is the number of businesses we have throughout the state in every community. If your business is not a member of the ILBA, please join today to strengthen our ability to protect your business. |
