Mississippi’s liquor shortage, caused by a failed warehouse system transition, leaves a 199,000-case backlog, with partial recovery expected by March and full resolution by May.
A major disruption at Mississippi’s ABC warehouse has caused widespread liquor and wine shortages, with a 199,000-case backlog due to technical issues during a transition to a new warehouse management system.
The shutdown in early January and subsequent software problems delayed shipments by up to three weeks, affecting stores, restaurants, and casinos statewide.
Though officials say technical issues are resolved and operations have improved with extended hours and staffing, the backlog remains.
Revenue Commissioner Chris Graham expects half the backlog cleared by March, the rest by May, but lawmakers and business owners urge faster action, suggesting temporary workarounds like direct purchases from manufacturers.
