About This Business & License Listing
Business & 4COP SFS / SRX Full-Liquor License: the license is tied to the qualifying restaurant operation and licensed premises associated with the Popular Mexican Restaurant and Lounge in Downtown Sanford Area. It is not an independently transferable quota license.
A 4COP SFS / SRX full-liquor license is issued to a qualifying restaurant and remains dependent on the qualifying food-service operation, approved premises, ownership or entity-change approval, and continuing compliance with applicable DBPR requirements, including the food-and-nonalcoholic-beverage sales test.
Current Florida law also allows a qualifying 4COP SFS / SRX restaurant to sell or deliver certain restaurant-prepared wine- or liquor-based drinks for off-premises consumption when sold with food and the statutory sealing, packaging and receipt requirements are satisfied. This authority does not turn the license into a package-store license or authorize manufacturer-sealed bottles of distilled spirits under the SFS provision.
