​​​​​​ERP Resources for Wine & Spirits Suppliers

The PLCB has implemented NEW SYSTEMS transforming its business from a traditional retail model to a wholesale/distribution, e-commerce and retail-focused business. Release 1 of Project New Horizon - our new enterprise resource planning platform - went live in January 2022, providing new finance and non-merchandise procurement systems. Release 2 went live July 2023, providing new systems that separate our wholesale and retail lines of business, changing the ways we procure wines and spirits, plan wholesale distribution, replenish stores and manage inventory and accounting. We also have a new Licensee Online Order Portal (LOOP) and a new and improved FWGS.com

For information on how to access and use our self-service Oracle Supplier Portal and new Retail Special Order Portal, please refer to the training resources below.
