ASSOCIATE MEMBERSHIP

The Massachusetts Package Stores Association is an organization representing the hundreds of locally owned retail liquor stores across the state. The Board of Directors are also owners/operators of liquor stores. Like you, we are subjected to the daily challenges of operating a business - insurance availability, wage, labor and tax issues, etc. We also face the challenges of preventing illegal sales and maintaining a positive public image. Your membership demonstrates your belief that the beverage alcohol industry, through its retailers, provides many positive benefits to our society.

Please refer to the attached application for an explanation of Associate Membership levels. Once you have selected your level of membership you will then have the exclusive right to advertise in our newsletter and/or place a banner or link on our website (www.masspack.org).
