What is WineFamily?

WineFamily is all the benefits of selling wine online direct to consumers, with none of the upfront costs

WineFamily is one of the most advanced and interactive wine e-commerce platforms in the world

WineFamily is a multi-vendor social commerce site, or in layman’s terms, an open online marketplace for wine

WineFamily is so-called because we believe that from producer to consumer, we are one singular ‘family’ that will work better when the lines of communication are flat and open.

and allowing you to talk directly to your customers Using our unique Grapevine platform, you can perform a virtual handsell of each product

whilst still building, maintaining and enhancing your own brandEach virtual shop is a window to your company and brand. Building your followers and ratings will enhance your stature and sales

Problems selling stock that you know is of great quality? Its happens everywhere, all the time

UPLOAD your product to your WineFamily shop

Set the VOLUME so that you never oversell. If you’ve got 2, 20, 200 or 2000 cases to clear, our system will automatically deplete the volume and remove the sale once all stock is sold out.

Set the PRICE you are happy to sell at - buyers will value quality, but discounted products usually sell more quickly

04 The Most Efficient Marketing Tools Ever

Grapevine is a common twitter-like communication platform across buyers, sellers and products. It allows:

Sellers to market directly to their followers: “New Product Just Released - Try It Now!” “20% extra off my last two cases of this Beaujolias Beauty” All sent instantly to your network of buyers.

Buyers can follow friends, family, trusted sources and shops so they can share information on wines - meaning they can build knowledge and confidence to buy

Buyers are automatically added to a shop’s grapevine when they purchase, meaning that shops can market to previous buyers in an instant

WineFamily’s ‘community’ functions build wine culture and awareness, with an opportunity to invite our wide audience to your latest promotional event.
