What started as a joke amongst acquaintances soon became a reality when it came to starting up a partnership and distillery in Grandview.

Since 2017, Grand Vieux Liquor Company has been busy behind the scenes working on their product line and is one step closer to getting their liquor ready for sale.

The location for the facility started out with plans to build a factory where the old recycling depot was located in Grandview. That plan was replaced when the old Manitoba Hydro Service Centre on 117 Government Road East, was on the market. In Dec. 2019, the Grand Vieux Liquor Company purchased the building and discussions of incorporating a restaurant, lounge and tasting room were had.
