Our Mission
The mission of The Louisiana Association of Beverage Alcohol Retailers is to unify independent family-owned alcohol retailers for industry enhancement and policy representation. We represent members' interests before legislative and regulatory bodies by promoting sound public policy initiatives and opposing those that do not benefit the general public, retailers, or the alcohol industry as a whole.
LABAR strives to amplify the importance of the relationship between the retailer and consumer that provides for the responsible sale of alcoholic beverages and an overall safe marketplace.
