Evidence of successful wine business strategies: customer acquisition, value or retention?

Abstract

This presentation illustrates a series of successful wine businesses, which have managed to counter the downward trend impacting the global industry. How these businesses have been successful is explained through the planning and execution of strategies that focused on a clear and consistent aim in attracting new consumers. These cases add weight to the ehrenbergian position that for a business to be successful it must target new customers as a priority over alternative options like increasing value or improving customer retention. 

Preuve de stratégies commerciales réussies dans le secteur du vin : acquisition, valeur ou fidélisation des clients ?

Cette présentation montre une série d’entreprises viticoles, qui ont réussi à contrer la tendance à la baisse qui touche l’industrie mondiale. Le succès de ces entreprises s’explique par la planification et l’exécution de stratégies axées sur un objectif clair et cohérent consistant à attirer de nouveaux consommateurs. Ces cas ajoutent du poids à la position ehrenbergienne selon laquelle pour qu’une entreprise réussisse, elle doit cibler de nouveaux clients en priorité plutôt que des options alternatives telles que l’augmentation de la valeur ou l’amélioration de la fidélisation de la clientèle.

Evidencia de estrategias comerciales exitosas del vino: ¿adquisición, valor o retención de clientes?

Esta presentación ilustra una serie de negocios vitivinícolas exitosos, que han logrado contrarrestar la tendencia a la baja que afecta a la industria global. El éxito de estos negocios se explica a través de la planificación y ejecución de estrategias que se centraron en un objetivo claro y consistente de atraer nuevos consumidores. Estos casos añaden peso a la posición de ehrenberg de que para que una empresa tenga éxito debe dirigirse a nuevos clientes como prioridad sobre opciones alternativas como aumentar el valor o mejorar la retención de clientes.

A look back at 20 years of exploring the future of the vines and wines sector

What if, in 25 years, most wines were dealcoholized and flavored ? What if vines were only cultivated to combat erosion, store carbon, and provide anthocyanins…? What if climate change completely changed the list of vine varieties cultivable for wine production in France? What if food stores had completely disappeared in favor of virtual platforms? And if… because the long-term future is not predetermined and therefore not knowable, because the future is open to several possibilities, because the future does not emerge from nothing but from the present which conceals heavy trends and weak signals, prospective approaches make it possible to consider the room for maneuver that actors have to promote the advent of a future, which we can hope to be chosen, at least in part.

Gestión de la mitigación por las empresas vitivinícolas: combinar sostenibilidad y rentabilidad

The transition to a decarbonized economy requires companies to adopt mitigation measures. The wine sector is one of the most affected by climate change and, therefore, interested in its mitigation. The question is how this process develops. To address this, we build on a previous study [1], which identified different types of Spanish wineries based on their sustainability approach.

Transforming the grapevine world through new breeding techniques

Climate change and environmental degradation are existential threats to europe and the world. One of the most important objectives is to reduce by 2030 the use and the risk of chemical pesticides and fertilisers, reducing nutrient losses and increasing organic farming. Grapevine (vitis spp.) is one of the major and most economically important fruit crops worldwide. It is characterised by high levels of genetic diversity, as result of natural genetic mutations, which are common in grapevines and further assisted by ongoing vegetative propagation.

Biomarker-based phenotyping of grapevine (vitis spp.) resistance to plasmopara viticola reveals interactions between pyramided resistance loci

Grape downy mildew, caused by plasmopara viticola, is one of the main diseases affecting viticulture worldwide and its control usually relies on frequent sprays with agrochemicals. Grapevine varieties resistant to p. Viticola represent an effective solution to control downy mildew and reduce the environmental impact of viticulture. Loci of resistance to p. Viticola (Rpv) have been introgressed from wild vitis species and some of them, like Rpv1, Rpv3.1 and Rpv10, are currently the most utilized genetic resources in grape breeding.

Impact of yeast strains on wine profiles of nine PIWIs: focus on volatile thiols

Disease resistant grapevine varieties (PIWI) are increasingly important for sustainable wine production, yet the impact of different yeasts on their wine profiles remains poorly studied. In this study, nine white interspecies varieties (i.e., caladris blanc, fleurtai, hibernal, johanniter, muscaris, sauvignon kretos, soreli, souvignier gris, and voltis) grown at the faculty of agriculture, university of Zagreb (Croatia) were vinified with three different saccharomyces cerevisiae yeasts (control strain, zymaflore x5, and zymaflore xarom).
