RICHMOND -To provide greater customer convenience, the Virginia Alcoholic Beverage Control Authority (ABC) has extended Monday through Saturday closing hours from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. in 31 stores effective today.

"The steady rise in sales in these 31 stores around their 7 p.m. closing time demonstrated to us that customers were shopping for distilled spirits, Virginia wines and mixers later in the day," said Chief Executive Officer Travis Hill.
