Alcohol producers could be able to sell directly to customers by 2025
The Swedish government says it's working on a bill to allow so-called ”farm sales” of alcohol, where small-scale producers will be permitted to sell directly to customers.
The sale of alcohol is tightly controlled in Sweden. The state-owned alcohol monopoly Systembolaget is the only store able to sell beverages with an alcohol content above 3.5 per cent.
Public Health Minister Jakob Forssmed of the Christian Democrats says the rural tourism industry has long called for these changes.
