Owning a tavern, carry-out, or state agency store, is one of the last ways left to pursue the American dream of owning and operating your own business. Of course, we don’t need to tell you that pursuing this dream can be a tough road to walk for a number of reasons — large organizations like insurance companies have economic clout that a small business owner cannot match, neo-prohibitionists like to demonize our industry in the media, and all too many politicians seem to be intent on tying our hands with regulations and then picking our pockets with taxes.

There is not a lot that an individual business owner can do in the face of all this. However, by joining in unity with other licensed beverage permit holders who care about their profession, there is quite a bit we can do. The Ohio Licensed Beverage Association is the best way of doing that — enabling permit holders to stand together to fight the forces that menace our profession.
