Guides were prepared for observation and recording verification of compliance on major labels fermented alcoholic beverages: wines from diverse national and most commercial distilled alcoholic beverages: as singanis and rum, through subsequent data analysis, allow us to present the following conclusion: 100% of the content of information provided labels fermented alcoholic beverages (wine) and distilled (Ron and Singani) that are sold in the supermarket "Hipermaxi" wholesale market and shops "the Ramada "of the city of Santa Cruz de la Sierra, not fully comply with the requirements referred to in the Bolivian standards.
