What are the requirements for a Wholesaler’s License?
An applicant applying for a wholesaler’s license must furnish affidavits from 3 separate Massachusetts licensed cigarette manufacturers. The affidavits must state that, if the Commissioner grants the license, the manufacturer will sell cigarettes to the wholesaler. If one or more of the manufacturers ceases to do business as a manufacturer, ceases to be licensed as a manufacturer, or ceases to supply cigarettes to the wholesaler, the licensee must, within 60 days, provide substitute affidavit(s) from other manufacturer(s). Failure to do so will result in the suspension or revocation of the wholesaler license. A wholesaler must meet the definition in M.G.L. c. 64C, § 1.
