The franchisor offers franchises for operation of vomFASS® retail stores for stand-alone retail stores and shop-inshops. vomFASS® retail stores sell liqueurs, wines, spirits, spices, vinegars and oils from bulk casks and amphora that allow customers to sample the products prior to purchase. Where local or state alcoholic beverage regulations restrict alcohol sales or make it impracticable, they offer side-by-side stores which offer liqueurs, wines and spirits in one space and oils, vinegars and spices in an adjacent or nearby space or stores featuring oils, vinegars and spices without the alcohol products under the Violas‘® store brand.
