A Minnesota-based distillery, Phillips Distilling Company, has relocated production of its Sour Puss liqueur from the U.S. to Montreal’s Station 22 distillery to re-enter the Canadian market, responding to trade uncertainties and provincial liquor monopolies’ boycotts of U.S. products. CEO Andy England emphasized the importance of the Canadian market, which accounts for 98% of Sour Puss sales. The move aims to enhance access to Quebec and Ontario liquor stores amid ongoing tariff challenges. Experts suggest that companies may consider shifting operations to maintain market access in these significant regions, despite trade uncertainties persisting between the two countries.
