FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
From the Office of John J. Suchy
Division Director of Liquor Control
Re: UNIMERC Number No Longer Required for Brand Registration
Effective immediately, the department will no longer require the practice of requiring wholesalers/manufacturers/shippers to obtain a UNIMERC number from DISCUS as part of the brand/label registration protocol.
We believe that this will expedite the process by which brands can be registered and come into the marketplace.
