You're right, Eng. A single entity can't control more than three retail licenses, so of the 6 Costcos in MA, only three have a kicense. The same not only goes for the big guys, but also applies to the little Mom and Pop chains and convenience stores. Also, they can only get a license if the local town authorities approve because there are only a certain number of licenses allowed per town. To top all that off, the MA laws say no one can be denied entry to any retail alcohol facility. So, all the membership stores (Costco, BJ'S, etc) have their alcohol sales in a place separated from the main facility so non-members can purchase alcohol also. The laws here in MA are just a mess.
