Irish wine merchant Gibneys is set to launch a new partnership in the Republic of Ireland with British wine supplier Bibendum from March 1.
The partnership will combine Gibneys' established wine brands with Bibendum's premium and artisanal wines, while a new and exclusive Bibendum range will also be launched in Northern Ireland on March 1.
"Excitement And Variety"
Drinks Industry Ireland quotes Gibneys sales director Duncan Millar as saying, "Bibendum’s portfolio offers a huge variety of wines from around the world, with countries of origin that are not easily sourced in Ireland. The addition of new, artisanal producers will add excitement and variety to any outlet’s offering.
"Having access to these new wines gives us the opportunity to expand conversations with luxury hotels, quality restaurants and premium, wine-led venues. This partnership with Bibendum will increase our business in Ireland, potentially doubling our wine sales over the next three years."
