Hey folks, just a reminder, London Competitions is hosting a webinar today (July 8th) at 10am UK time. The webinar is with importers and distributors of the UK and will cover UK wine trends, how to pitch your wine to UK wine distributors, what they are looking for in a partnership, and more.
Unlock the secrets to successfully selling your wine to UK distributors and importers with our insightful webinar. Ideal for wine producers and exporters looking to expand into the UK or who are already being imported there. The session will feature 4-5 wine importers and distributors Carla Bertellotti, David A. Harvey, Michael Awin, David Wood and Frances Bentley and cover essential strategies to pitch and work with UK importers and distributors, along with market insights and trends.
Sid Patel will be moderating this panel. Common questions we will answer include UK market trends, what distributors look for in a new brand when saying YES, and the current challenges in the UK market. We will also address questions from attending brands such as the best period of the year to find new distributors/importers, the influence of wine writers/magazines on purchasing decisions, how a US meadery can get UK distribution, and views on discounting wine – whether it is a good or bad idea.
Additionally, we will discuss the possibility for minority varietals in the UK market, margin expectations, and whether international fairs or private events are better for gaining distributor interest.
