Imported wine from the EU sold directly to our customers

The huge growth in direct sales of wine sees monthly volumes surging by up to 100%

 

Our clients are experiencing an unprecedented surge in demand for direct to door sales of French, Spanish and Italian wine. Wine sales by supermarkets during the Coronavirus outbreak increased by a reported 20%-30% in only one year, yet our continental suppliers have experienced sales increasing monthly by 50% to 100%.

We’re unique in offering a service of UK tax representative to clients selling ‘duty paid’ wine and spirits under the distance selling rules to private customers in the UK. This service is becoming increasingly popular as alcohol sellers seek to deal directly with customers and to cut out the inventory costs and lack of flexibility and control otherwise associated with the traditional bonded warehouse or UK wholesaler model.

We provide excise clearance services to alcohol producers and distributors throughout the EU, enabling them to make internet sales of wines, beers and spirits directly to British consumers. Direct sales cut out the delay and expense of a traditional wholesale and retail distribution network. British consumers benefit from far greater choice and reduced cost and producers benefit from easy, cost effective, access to the largest alcohol market in Europe.

The modern wine buying public prefer to browse the vast range of quality wines offered on its clients’ own websites, or on internet marketplaces such as Amazon.

Our service enables UK consumers to enjoy unrivalled choice together with the convenience of doorstep delivery, rather than being restrained by the limited selection of supermarkets or having the inconvenience and expense of needing to approach independent wine merchants. All wine arrives UK duty paid and there are no volume limits or other formalities. Upon receipt, the customer just has to open the bottle and enjoy!

We’re now the go-to provider of these services, handling all excise and VAT compliance matters. Working together with our EU network (EEA), we can now offer these services throughout the EU, providing a simple, one-stop solution for businesses wanting to expand beyond their domestic market.
