About This Audit
The examination report by the Pennsylvania Auditor General assessed the operations of Fine Wine and Good Spirits Store 4306, Hermitage, against compliance with the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board (PLCB) procedures from July 10, 2024, to July 15, 2025. The review involved inventory checks, financial deposits, clerk performance reports, and compliance with internal controls. While the store operated mostly within compliance, a repeat finding highlighted inventory discrepancies exceeding $200 in value, suggesting inadequate inventory management due to issues such as shoplifting and errors in order fulfillment. This repeat finding had been noted over six prior examinations without corrective action from store management. Recommendations include strengthening inventory controls, ensuring employees check orders accurately, and improving asset protection practices to mitigate discrepancies. The store’s managers agreed with the findings and committed to taking corrective actions. This is an automated summary. Please rely on the contents included in the released audit report.
