Distribution Bond?

[grasshopper]

I run a liquor distribution company here in North Carolina and I am being required by the state to have surety bond in place to operate. The request that was sent to me was very vauge and never specifically names the type of surety bond other then distribution bond. When I checked your web site for the various bonds you offer I was unable to locate "Distribution bond". I saw Liquor Tax bond, will this cover the requirments? As you can tell I am lost.

The Liquor Tax Bond "may" suffice for your needs. I have seen Distribution Bonds forms that offer several options that can be checked off to suit your specific needs and/or what the state is requiring you to have. I would double check with the state to find out exactly what would apply to you and your business.

So ,there may be a bond form that has different check boxes on it that will indicate what type of business I am in?

Yes there are - for example some choices are Alcoholic Beverages, Cigarettes and/or Tobacco. Under the Alcoholic catergory there are sub categories such as Manufacturer, JDBW Distributor, KLD Distributor and Bonded Warehouse, etc. So I would get a copy of the bond form from the state and have them provide you with the correct category for your business.
