Space crunch at Tasmac outlets following new display mandate

Tasmac outlets in Chennai are facing severe space constraints following a directive to provide equal shelf space for products from all breweries and distilleries. With many shops operating in small 250 to 500 sqft premises, staff are struggling to accommodate the influx of new liquor brands and imported stock.

Limited refrigeration capacity has forced vendors to store beer outside cooling units. A Tasmac official stated that sales performance will be reviewed by the end of August to reallocate shelf space. The prohibition and excise department plans to expand outlets where adjacent land is available to address the storage issues.
