According to Eli Countryman salesperson for their wine to
LCBO outlets in Ontario,
"It has been a long and sometimes difficult
road to get our Strawberry Wine listed and
put on the shelves.
On December 4, we shipped our first cases which went to
the local LCBO stores in Brockville and Gananoque.
We have promises for orders to Kanata, two stores in
Downtown Kingston, Gananoque, Perth, Carleton Place,
Kemptville, Ottawa at 222 Richmond Road, Ottawa at 1980 Bank
Street, Brockville, Shopping Centre, Ottawa-Nepean, 543 West
Hunt Club Road, Ottawa - Manotick, 1154 Currier Street and
Orleans.
Soon it will be on their shelves just in time
for the
festive season."
