Registration of trade marks; sale within 6 geographical area; delivery to authorized persons. The 7 Legislature hereby finds and declares that for purposes of 8 ensuring the preservation and enhancement of interbrand 9 competition in the alcoholic liquor industry within the 10 State, ensuring that importation and distribution of 11 alcoholic liquor in the State will be subject to thorough and 12 inexpensive monitoring by the State, reducing the importation 13 of illicit or untaxed alcoholic liquor into the State, 14 excluding misbranded alcoholic liquor products from the 15 State, providing incentives to distributors to service and 16 sell to larger numbers of retail licensees in the geographic 17 area where such distributors are engaged in business, and 18 reducing the amount of spoiled and overaged alcoholic liquor 19 products sold to consumers, it is necessary to restrict the 20 purchase of alcoholic liquors at wholesale in the State to 21 those persons selected by the manufacturer, distributor, 22 importing distributor or foreign importer who owns or 23 controls the trade mark, brand or name of the alcoholic 24 liquor products sold to such persons, and to restrict the 25 geographic area or areas within which such persons sell such 26 alcoholic liquor at wholesale, as provided in this Section. 27 Each manufacturer, non-resident dealer, distributor, 28 importing distributor, or foreign importer who owns or 29 controls the trade mark, brand or name of any alcoholic 30 liquor shall register with the State Commission, in the 31 Chicago office, on or before the effective date, the name of 32 each person to whom such manufacturer, non-resident dealer, 33 distributor, importing distributor, or foreign importer -3- LRB9009516LDdvam06 1 grants the right to sell at wholesale in this State any such 2 alcoholic liquor, specifying the particular trade mark, brand 3 or name of alcoholic liquor as to which such right is 4 granted, the geographical area or areas for which such right 5 is granted and the period of time for which such rights are 6 granted to such person. Each manufacturer, non-resident 7 dealer, distributor or importing distributor, or foreign 8 importer who is required to register under this Section must 9 furnish a copy of the registration statement at the time of 10 appointment to the person who has been granted the right to 11 sell alcoholic liquor at wholesale. Such manufacturer, 12 non-resident dealer, distributor, importing distributor, or 13 foreign importer may grant the right to sell at wholesale any 14 trade mark, brand or name of any alcoholic liquor in any 15 geographical area to more than one person. If the 16 registration is received after the effective date, the 17 Commission shall treat the date the registration was received 18 in the Chicago office as the effective date. Such 19 registration shall be made on a form prescribed by the State 20 Commission and the State Commission may require such 21 registration to be on a form provided by it. No such 22 registration shall be made by any other person or in any 23 other manner than as is provided in this Section and only 24 those persons registered by the manufacturer, non-resident 25 dealer, distributor, importing distributor or foreign 26 importer, shall have the right to sell at wholesale in this 27 State, the brand of alcoholic liquor specified on the 28 registration form. 29 However, a licensed Illinois distributor who has not been 30 registered to sell a brand of alcoholic liquor, but for a 31 period of 2 years prior to November 8, 1979 has been engaged 32 in the purchase of a brand for resale from a licensed 33 Illinois distributor who has the right to sell that brand at 34 wholesale, may continue to purchase and resell the brand at -4- LRB9009516LDdvam06 1 wholesale, and may purchase from the same distributor and 2 resell at wholesale any new brands of the same manufacturer, 3 provided that: 4 (1) Within 60 days after November 8, 1979 he 5 identifies the brand which he so purchased to the State 6 Commission and the Commission within 30 days thereafter 7 verifies that the purchases have occurred; 8 (2) Thereafter, he notifies the State Commission in 9 writing of any brands of the same manufacturer which he 10 wishes to purchase from the same distributor that were 11 not available for distribution on or before November 8, 12 1979, and that the Commission within 30 days of such 13 notification verifies that the brand is a new brand of 14 the same manufacturer, and that the same licensed 15 Illinois distributor has the right to sell the new brand 16 at wholesale; 17 (3) His licensed business address is within the 18 geographical area for which the licensed Illinois 19 distributor from whom the purchases are made has the 20 right to sell said brand or brands of alcoholic liquor; 21 and 22 (4) His sales are made within the geographical area 23 for which the licensed Illinois distributor from whom the 24 purchases are made has the right to sell the brand or 25 brands of alcoholic liquor and only to retail licensees 26 whose licensed premises are located within the 27 aforementioned geographical area. 28 No person to whom such right is granted shall sell at 29 wholesale in this State any alcoholic liquor bearing such 30 trade mark, brand or name outside of the geographical area 31 for which such person holds such selling right, as registered 32 with the State Commission, nor shall he sell such alcoholic 33 liquor within such geographical area to a retail licensee if 34 the premises specified in such retailer's license are located -5- LRB9009516LDdvam06 1 outside such geographical area. Any licensed Illinois 2 distributor who has not been granted the right to sell any 3 alcoholic liquor at wholesale and is purchasing alcoholic 4 liquor from a person who has been granted the right to sell 5 at wholesale may sell and deliver only to retail licensees 6 whose licensed premises are within the same geographical area 7 as the person who has been granted the right to sell at 8 wholesale. 9 No manufacturer, importing distributor, distributor, 10 non-resident dealer, or foreign importer shall sell or 11 deliver any package containing alcoholic liquor manufactured 12 or distributed by him for resale, unless the person to whom 13 such package is sold or delivered is authorized to receive 14 such package in accordance with the provisions of this Act. 15 (Source: P.A. 89-250, eff. 1-1-96.) 16 (235 ILCS 5/7-1) (from Ch. 43, par. 145) 17 Sec. 7-1.
