About American Beverage Licensees - ABL Convention

American Beverage Licensees is the preeminent national trade association for independent retail beverage alcohol license holders across the United States. ABL’s members, who number nearly 20,000, are comprised of on-premise (bars, taverns, restaurants, casinos) and off-premise (package stores) retailers. ABL continues to grow today thanks in large part to its hard-working members and the support of its fellow industry organizations

ABL’s primary work focuses the interests of beverage alcohol retailers before Congress and in a national setting, as well as providing a unifying network for the retail tier of the beverage alcohol industry. ABL represents independent small business owners and a historical part of the American way of life. Many members operate family-owned businesses that assure the responsible sale and enjoyment of beverage alcohol products by adults.
