Direct From Italy’s Contribution: The Best Practice for D2C Sales
As part of Vinitaly Tourism, our founder Denis Andolfo will speak as a guest expert to explore the topic of Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) sales as a strategic tool for wineries. D2C not only allows producers to optimize sales by eliminating intermediaries, but also serves as a powerful opportunity to build customer loyalty and enhance the value of their territory.
Why is D2C Sales Crucial for Wineries?
-
Direct Internationalization: Thanks to digital tools and innovative solutions, wine can reach consumers all over the world in full compliance with customs and tax regulations.
-
Compliant D2C, Zero Risk: We’ll cover all the best approaches to tackle the upcoming season, analyzing both correct and incorrect practices to maximize profits, avoid penalties, and protect your brand reputation.
-
Greater Profit Margins: By eliminating intermediaries, producers can achieve a higher margin on sales.
-
Personalized Experience: Wineries can offer customers exclusive, tailor-made experiences, increasing loyalty and engagement.
