Checkers Liquor

Selling alcohol in Knysna involves more than just stocking bottles — it's about understanding seasonal demand, managing stock across a tourist-driven town, and keeping products in condition. The Knysna climate brings humidity and temperature fluctuations that affect wine storage, particularly important for a destination where visitors expect quality wines from the surrounding estates. Checkers Liquor operates within these realities: managing inventory that shifts dramatically between summer holiday peaks and quieter winter months, handling both everyday beer-and-spirits shoppers and the wine tourists visiting from the Garden Route. Load shedding affects cold storage, and the local market demands both international brands and local craft products that require appropriate turnover and storage.
