SUMMARY AS PASSED:

The bill creates a marketing portal license, which allows an authorized agricultural cooperative association to solicit and receive orders for wine or beer through the use of the Internet from persons in Virginia on behalf of holders of wine or beer shipper's licenses. The bill also prohibits licensed wholesalers or any person under common control of such licensee from obtaining the fulfillment warehouse license. The bill sets the annual license taxes for these two new licenses. This bill is identical to SB 483 (Hurt).
