That's a great book, even better than the first one. They made us read it at founder institute.
Those logistical efficiencies must work in the convenience store biz as well. Honolulu has all of these ABC stores. I even saw 2 almost across the street from each other.

- riffic 16y agoit's interesting (from the article) that during the temperance period, alcohol too was sold from stores called 'dispensaries' > At the beginning of the temperance movement in the United States, many states curtailed where and when alcohol could be sold. Before this time, most alcoholic beverages for off-premises consumption were often sold just like any other item in stores or in saloons/bars. Because of heavy lobbying by temperance groups in various states, most required off-premise beverages to be sold in dedicated stores (primarily called dispensaries)
