(Credit: Laura Proctor/The Canadian Press files)Ontario’s biggest alcohol retailer says demand for Ontario-made products is still growing thanks to ongoing ‘buy local’ sentiment.
According to new data from the Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO), overall sales for Ontario-made products were up 23 per cent between February and September, compared to the same period last year.
Ontario craft cider is also experiencing positive growth both in LCBO stores and online, the LCBO said.
The LCBO said it is committed to supporting local products and producers year-round and connecting Ontarians to products from their own backyard.
