Strong Operator & Superior Network Support
• The retail store system is supported by Anderson’s enterprise fulfillment center located in Wetaskiwin,
Alberta
 Strategically located with proximity to several main highways in Alberta
 Enables Anderson’s to break down bundled inventory in order to better meet the demands of
individual stores, as well as take advantage of pricing opportunities on a limited time offer basis
 As the Company continues to grow, greater storage capacity is available through an agreement
with its current landlord that would allow Anderson’s to significantly expand its warehouse
• Pursuant to the Company’s acquisition strategy, increased scale of operations will allow Anderson’s to
reduce overall costs of management, realize operational and administrative efficiencies, facilitate
increased use of limited time discount offerings, and spread corporate cost over a larger store system
• Anderson’s network is managed by a flat management structure that is a key to the Company’s
efficient coverage of the network

Alberta Liquor Industry – Highly Fragmented
• Since privatization, the Alberta liquor stores industry has seen
significant acquisition activity
• Despite heavy acquisition activity, the liquor industry in
Alberta remains fragmented, as the majority of liquor stores
in Alberta are operated by private retailers who operate as
single-store owners or chains of fewer than five stores not
under a major flagship
