STATE OF THE GRAPES: RETAIL INSIGHTS FOR MARGARET RIVER
Join us for an exclusive industry briefing on the State of the Grapes report, presented by Andrew Shedden, General Manager of Premium & Luxury at Endeavour Group.
Developed from one of Australia’s largest retail datasets, the State of the Grapes report provides a comprehensive view of how wine is performing in the off-trade environment, and how consumer behaviour is evolving across key price segments and categories.
This session will translate these national insights into a Margaret River context, exploring what current retail trends mean for producers across pricing, positioning, portfolio mix and route-to-market. Key themes include premiumisation, changing consumer purchasing patterns, and the role of brand, storytelling and occasion in driving sales.
Attendees will gain practical, commercially relevant insights to support decision-making across sales, marketing and business strategy, along with the opportunity to engage directly with Andrew during an interactive Q&A.
This event is suited to wine business owners, sales and marketing professionals, and those involved in brand and commercial strategy who are seeking a clearer understanding of the retail landscape and how to respond to it.
The session will be followed by informal networking with industry peers.
