Before an unlicensed individual or entity, other than a licensed retailer, engages in the business of taking orders for alcoholic beverages from Maryland consumers for ultimate sale and delivery by a licensed retail dealer, the individual or entity shall receive an authorization letter from the Executive Director. In order to receive authorization, an applicant shall submit a detailed plan to the Executive Director: Giving the names of all licensees the applicant is representing directly or indirectly; and Agreeing to comply with all of the laws and regulations pertaining to alcoholic beverages, and any stipulations or restrictions that may be made a part of the authorization. An authorization given is valid indefinitely or until revoked or modified by the Executive Director. Illegal or improper activities engaged in by an individual or entity receiving orders from consumers, with or without a letter of authorization, may subject a licensee represented by the individual or entity as an agent to administrative action. Alcoholic beverages sold and delivered as a result of a consumer order placed with an individual or entity shall be made through a supplier to a wholesaler to a retail dealer, all of whom shall hold the requisite license or permit.
