When a wholesaler owns a controlling interest or stock in a retail establishment or corporation and creates, organizes or maintains such retail outlet for the purpose of violating this article by making retail sales therefrom at a price that would be in violation of this article if made at retail directly by the wholesaler, such wholesaler shall be liable also for any violation of this article by any such retailer.
