Tunnel Liquor Store

Running a liquor store in Pretoria means managing inventory across seasons, handling variable foot traffic linked to paydays and weekends, and working around load shedding that affects cold storage and till systems. Tunnel Liquor Store operates in a city where summer entertaining is serious business—braai season drives demand spikes, and winter brings office parties and family gatherings. The logistics include sourcing stock from national distributors, managing expiry dates on perishables like beer and coolers, ensuring compliance with licensing regulations, and keeping the shop secure during off-hours. Temperature control for wine and sensitive spirits matters year-round, especially in Gauteng's temperature swings. Efficient stocktaking and supplier relationships keep shelves stocked when customers need them most.
