Did you know that 40% of the wine consumed in the UK is shipped in bulk? It’s an impressive figure – but it has been higher in the past, and should be again. At our Partnership Day, Miles Beale highlighted this, raising two critical questions: why isn’t this number higher already – and why is it declining? The benefits of bulk wine shipping are undeniable, both economically and environmentally. As an industry, we must fully embrace what we know works. Bulk shipping alone can reduce carbon emissions by up to 40%, minimise wine loss during transit, and ensure more consistent flavours for consumers. It’s a win-win-win situation, and the time to act is now. #Sustainability #SupplyChain #VividVision
