• Conditions as per Operating Schedule

   

  The application for 24 hours off sales is to accommodate internet sales. We are a start-up business selling small quantities of specialist alcoholic drinks through Amazon.

   

  As the estimated sales volume is very small, the intention is to store and ship from a defined room within this property.

  Due to the nature of this premises we anticipate that the operation will have little to no impact upon our neighbours. There will be no customers permitted to attend the premises to collect any alcohol they may have purchased or to sample any alcohol prior to purchase.

   

  All sales shall be made remotely via the internet. We therefore anticipate that there will be no significant impact, if any, on the promotion of the licensing objectives.

   

  The premises licence holder shall maintain an accurate and up to date record of all sales of alcohol. This information shall be made available to Police and authorised officers when requested.

  The premises shall install, operate and maintain a burglar alarm.

   

  Given that customers will not be permitted to attend the premises we do not anticipate that public safety will be a concern at the premises.

  The premises licence holder shall ensure that a suitable fire risk assessment and emergency plan is always in place.

  The premises licence holder shall ensure that an electrical compliance check is made at least once a year.

  No accumulation of combustible rubbish, dirt, surplus material or stored goods shall be permitted to remain in any part of the premises except in an appropriate place and of such quantities so as not to cause a nuisance,obstruction or other safety hazard.

   

  Public nuisance issues tend to follow customer attendance at a licensed premise;

  the absence of customers will greatly reduce the potential for public nuisance issues to flow from the provision of licensable activity at this venue No deliveries will take place to the premises between 19.00 and 7.00.

  The premises shall not be open to the public and no member of the public shall be permitted to attend the premises at any time for the purchase/collection of alcohol.

   

  Children will not be permitted to attend the premises in respect of this licence.

  Additionally, the nature of the alcohol we supply, i.e. specialist brands, is unlikely to appeal to an under-18 market. We are therefore confident that children will not be likely to attempt to purchase the alcohol we sell and hence unlikely to come to harm further to our retail sales.

  All sales will be made and fulfilled by Amazon who have an age restriction policy in place which can be found at https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=200422990

  All staff employed in the sale of alcohol shall be trained in respect of the law relating to the sale of alcohol. Training must be documented, and details made available upon request by the Police, Trading Standards Officers and Licensing Officers.

  Training shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis.
