Quick List

The ISLD product mix is continuously evaluated to ensure success in serving our patrons. Listing and delisting procedures are used to maintain an optimal assortment for the consumer by bringing new items to market and removing nonperforming items. The final decision regarding items offered by the ISLD rests with the Director.

The Director reserves the right to approve or disapprove any additions to ISLD product line.

IDAPA 15 Administrative Rules

Idaho Liquor Supplier Representatives may submit items for consideration to the “Quick List Committee” by the 15th of the month prior to the meeting month. The Quick List meetings allow for prompt consideration of new items presented to Idaho. Quick List meetings are held in: January, February, March, May, July, August, and September.

Item “Fit” With ISLD Product Line:

  • The number of items currently offered matches the sales demand of the respective category.

Special Orders

An item can be added to the Special-Order product line upon request supported by an identified retail consumer or liquor–by–the drink licensees through a local liquor store inquiry system.

***No “speculative” Special Orders will be considered or allowed***
