Entering the IWSC

Who should enter?

Wine and spirit producers, importers, wholesalers and retailers are all eligible and will benefit from entering products to The Competition. If organisations other than the producer submit winning products, then both the producer and the entrant will receive awards and public recognition of the achievement.

Why enter?

Entering the competition and winning the respect of the industry is only the beginning; it’s what you do with this achievement that makes it worthwhile and commercially very beneficial.

IWSC takes great pride in helping winners market their success by:

Introductions to importers/distributors
Exposure on IWSC website with tasting notes and direct links
Free high resolution artwork for producing your own POS material
Exposure at international exhibitions – London International Wine Fair, Prowein (Germany), Vinitaly (Italy), Vinexpo (France)
Generating editorial coverage through international publications
Promotion through Showcase Tastings and the awards presentation banquet
Retail promotions e.g Non Price based promotion by Glengarry New Zealand backed by the New Zealand Herald.
Extensive PR opportunities through consumer press
