DB Breweries is purchasing seven Liquorland stores from New Zealand Liquor.
NZ Liquor has agreed to sell the stores to DB, which owns the 72-store Liquorland franchise, by February next year.
DB Breweries' managing director Brian Blake said the stores - five in Auckland, one in Mt Maunganui and one in Hamilton - will be sold to franchisees as soon as possible and would remain under the Liquorland umbrella.
