On Monday, August 3, the Italy-America Chamber of Commerce South Central will be hosting a webinar featuring Grape-In, a new and highly innovative online platform that allows winemakers to bypass America’s three-tier system for wine sales and connect directly with trade buyers.
According to the founders’ market research, corporate wine groups who sell to America’s five largest importers account for roughly 60 percent of wine sales in the U.S. (an increase of 20 percent with respect to a few decades ago).
The big companies’ market share continues to grow as wine industry consolidation continues to expand its reach. And the channels and opportunities for small- and medium-sized wineries continue to become fewer and farther between and increasingly narrow.
The idea behind the GrapeIn concept is simple: By connecting suppliers directly with trade buyers, GrapeIn enables small wine and spirits suppliers to bypass the monopolized distribution market to dramatically increase sales and profitability.
And by harnessing powerful Artificial Intelligence technology, GrapeIn is able to identify potential clients with laser-sharp focus and accuracy.
For our webinar presentation of their company and platform, we’ll be talking with the company’s lead executives.
If you are a small to medium-sized winemaker in Italy, you don’t want to miss this opportunity to go right to the source.
Looking forward to connecting you and GrapeIn next Monday!
