Coles to end Vintage Cellar, First Choice brands in liquor overhaul

Carrie LaFrenz

Coles will permanently retire the Vintage Cellars and First Choice Liquor Market chains after a successful four-month trial of rolling out the Liquorland brand to other parts of its alcohol retailing business.

The change is the most significant since Coles entered the business in 1981 with the acquisition of Liquorland and Vintage Cellars. Next month, it will begin to roll out the branding to its 984 stores, renaming Vintage Cellars and First Choice as Liquorland Cellars and Liquorland Warehouse, respectively.
