4 "(235 ILCS 5/6-9) (from Ch. 43, par. 126)
5 Sec. 6-9. Registration of trade marks; sale within
6 geographical area; delivery to authorized persons. The
7 Legislature hereby finds and declares that for purposes of
8 ensuring the preservation and enhancement of interbrand
9 competition in the alcoholic liquor industry within the
10 State, ensuring that importation and distribution of
11 alcoholic liquor in the State will be subject to thorough and
12 inexpensive monitoring by the State, reducing the importation
13 of illicit or untaxed alcoholic liquor into the State,
14 excluding misbranded alcoholic liquor products from the
15 State, providing incentives to distributors to service and
16 sell to larger numbers of retail licensees in the geographic
17 area where such distributors are engaged in business, and
18 reducing the amount of spoiled and overaged alcoholic liquor
19 products sold to consumers, it is necessary to restrict the
20 purchase of alcoholic liquors at wholesale in the State to
21 those persons selected by the manufacturer, distributor,
22 importing distributor or foreign importer who owns or
23 controls the trade mark, brand or name of the alcoholic
24 liquor products sold to such persons, and to restrict the
25 geographic area or areas within which such persons sell such
26 alcoholic liquor at wholesale, as provided in this Section.
27 Each manufacturer, non-resident dealer, distributor,
28 importing distributor, or foreign importer who owns or
29 controls the trade mark, brand or name of any alcoholic
30 liquor shall register with the State Commission, in the
31 Chicago office, on or before the effective date, the name of
32 each person to whom such manufacturer, non-resident dealer,
33 distributor, importing distributor, or foreign importer
-3- LRB9009516LDdvam06
1 grants the right to sell at wholesale in this State any such
2 alcoholic liquor, specifying the particular trade mark, brand
3 or name of alcoholic liquor as to which such right is
4 granted, the geographical area or areas for which such right
5 is granted and the period of time for which such rights are
6 granted to such person. Each manufacturer, non-resident
7 dealer, distributor or importing distributor, or foreign
8 importer who is required to register under this Section must
9 furnish a copy of the registration statement at the time of
10 appointment to the person who has been granted the right to
11 sell alcoholic liquor at wholesale. Such manufacturer,
12 non-resident dealer, distributor, importing distributor, or
13 foreign importer may grant the right to sell at wholesale any
14 trade mark, brand or name of any alcoholic liquor in any
15 geographical area to more than one person. If the
16 registration is received after the effective date, the
17 Commission shall treat the date the registration was received
18 in the Chicago office as the effective date. Such
19 registration shall be made on a form prescribed by the State
20 Commission and the State Commission may require such
21 registration to be on a form provided by it. No such
22 registration shall be made by any other person or in any
23 other manner than as is provided in this Section and only
24 those persons registered by the manufacturer, non-resident
25 dealer, distributor, importing distributor or foreign
26 importer, shall have the right to sell at wholesale in this
27 State, the brand of alcoholic liquor specified on the
28 registration form.
29 However, a licensed Illinois distributor who has not been
30 registered to sell a brand of alcoholic liquor, but for a
31 period of 2 years prior to November 8, 1979 has been engaged
32 in the purchase of a brand for resale from a licensed
33 Illinois distributor who has the right to sell that brand at
34 wholesale, may continue to purchase and resell the brand at
-4- LRB9009516LDdvam06
1 wholesale, and may purchase from the same distributor and
2 resell at wholesale any new brands of the same manufacturer,
3 provided that:
4 (1) Within 60 days after November 8, 1979 he
5 identifies the brand which he so purchased to the State
6 Commission and the Commission within 30 days thereafter
7 verifies that the purchases have occurred;
8 (2) Thereafter, he notifies the State Commission in
9 writing of any brands of the same manufacturer which he
10 wishes to purchase from the same distributor that were
11 not available for distribution on or before November 8,
12 1979, and that the Commission within 30 days of such
13 notification verifies that the brand is a new brand of
14 the same manufacturer, and that the same licensed
15 Illinois distributor has the right to sell the new brand
16 at wholesale;
17 (3) His licensed business address is within the
18 geographical area for which the licensed Illinois
19 distributor from whom the purchases are made has the
20 right to sell said brand or brands of alcoholic liquor;
21 and
22 (4) His sales are made within the geographical area
23 for which the licensed Illinois distributor from whom the
24 purchases are made has the right to sell the brand or
25 brands of alcoholic liquor and only to retail licensees
26 whose licensed premises are located within the
27 aforementioned geographical area.
28 No person to whom such right is granted shall sell at
29 wholesale in this State any alcoholic liquor bearing such
30 trade mark, brand or name outside of the geographical area
31 for which such person holds such selling right, as registered
32 with the State Commission, nor shall he sell such alcoholic
33 liquor within such geographical area to a retail licensee if
34 the premises specified in such retailer's license are located
-5- LRB9009516LDdvam06
1 outside such geographical area. Any licensed Illinois
2 distributor who has not been granted the right to sell any
3 alcoholic liquor at wholesale and is purchasing alcoholic
4 liquor from a person who has been granted the right to sell
5 at wholesale may sell and deliver only to retail licensees
6 whose licensed premises are within the same geographical area
7 as the person who has been granted the right to sell at
8 wholesale.
9 No manufacturer, importing distributor, distributor,
10 non-resident dealer, or foreign importer shall sell or
11 deliver any package containing alcoholic liquor manufactured
12 or distributed by him for resale, unless the person to whom
13 such package is sold or delivered is authorized to receive
14 such package in accordance with the provisions of this Act.
