WHAT IS THE USER PAYS GLOBAL EVENTS PROGRAMME?

The objective of the Global Events Programme is to support the New

Zealand Wine category by providing a platform for individual winery

brand promotion. This is achieved by developing and executing well

attended, premium events in our key target markets: Asia, Australia,

Canada, Europe and USA.

All New Zealand wineries are entitled to participate in the Global

Events Programme. The Programme will benefit both wineries that are

actively exporting to and wineries that are seeking distribution in our

key target markets. By participating in the Global Events Programme,

wineries will be provided with event-focused support and expertise

from the New Zealand Winegrowers team with the aim of helping to

increase wineries’ presence in the targeted markets.

WHAT IS THE GLOBAL EVENTS SUBSCRIPTION?

To get the most benefit from the Global Events Programme, wineries

can opt to pay an annual Global Events Subscription, which covers

either one market or all markets. This subscription supports the overall

Global Events Programme and administrative costs relating to Asia,

Australia, Canada, Europe and USA.

THE GLOBAL EVENTS SUBSCRIPTION STRUCTURE IS AS FOLLOWS:

Summary of options:1. Sign up as a Global Events Subscriber entitling you to

the lower Event Participation Fees across all markets

OR

2. Remain a Non-Global Events Subscriber and pay 100%

loading on any events you choose to participate in.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF PAYING THE GLOBAL EVENTS

SUBSCRIPTION?

Wineries paying the Global Events Subscription will pay less to

participate in New Zealand Wine events in comparison to wineries

not paying the Global Events Subscription.

By paying the Global Events Subscription, wineries will only be

required to pay the standard Event Participation Fee for each

specific New Zealand Wine event. This fee is specified on each event

proposal page in the Global Events Programme.

Wineries who do not wish to pay the Global Events Subscription

can still participate in one or more events. However, non-Global

Events Subscribers will be required to pay the standard Event

Participation Fee PLUS a 100% loading fee for each specific event.

OVERVIEW

The Air New Zealand Wine Awards is the premier wine competition in New Zealand recognising excellence in winemaking.

In 2014, 1,535 wines were judged by a team of local and international judges to identify Medal and Trophy winners for each of the varietal categories. This year we expect an excellent level of quality wines to be entered and judged by our esteemed judging team, including two international judges from Australia and China.

An awards dinner is held in November to announce and celebrate the Elite Gold Medal, Pure Elite Gold Medal and Trophy winning wines, and to acknowledge the talents of our winemakers. This is a high-profile black-tie dinner, with a quality focus both in terms of wine and fine New Zealand cuisine. In 2015 the dinner will be held in Nelson.

OVERVIEW

Capitalising on the trade and media in New Zealand for Sauvignon 2016, New Zealand Winegrowers is organising a Chardonnay and Sparkling Symposium in Gisborne. The Symposium will host 74 international attendees, who will participate in a full day Sparkling and Chardonnay masterclass, showcasing the best examples of these varieties, to highly targeted themes. The selection of wines for this masterclass will take place alongside the standard blind tasting, with separate judges and criteria.

The Symposium festivities will commence in Gisborne on the afternoon of Thursday 4 February with a traditional Māori Welcome (Powhiri) as guests alight from the charter plane which has whisked them up the North Island from Blenheim. The Welcome Dinner that evening will be held at Matawhero Vineyards, one of the wine industry’s most memorable pioneering companies. To set the scene for this Welcome Dinner, a user pays tasting will take place for guests on arrival at Matawhero. Wineries will have the opportunity to present and pour two of their finest wines, Chardonnay and/or Sparkling wine, and speak with our domestic and international guest contingent. These wineries will then be invited to stay on for the Welcome Dinner.

On the evening of Friday 5 February, the Farewell Dinner will take place in a marquee on the spectacular Midway Beach, with local chefs serving up a stunning array of seafood matched to some of New Zealand’s best wines. Wineries participating in the user pays tasting will also be invited to attend this evening event.

Small and perfectly formed, Taiwan is a great market to test your China strategy. Capital city Taipei is the main hub for the F&B industry, and while there is a long history of spirits consumption, Taiwanese trade and consumers are now turning to wine. There is a growing interest in all things Kiwi among the trade, especially following the Agreement for Economic Cooperation (ANZTEC) – Taiwan’s first with any country.

Taiwan wine consumption has increased by 38.2% from 2008 to 2012, and is expected to increase another 25.7% by year 2017. In the past five years, white wine consumption in the Taiwanese market has increased exponentially by 142% and is expected to continue growing.

KOREA OVERVIEW

Korea’s wine market is in the early stages of development. Wine accounts for around 2-3% of total alcohol consumption in Korea and is still considered a luxury item. However, an increasingly westernized diet and drinking culture, rising incomes amongst middle and upper classes, perceptions of wine as a health benefit and consumers developing understanding and taste for wine shows a great opportunity for growth in the market. With a growing wine sector and a recently-signed FTA with New Zealand, Korea is a market worth exploring and now is the time.

Seoul is the leading city for wine consumption, and its cosmopolitan scene makes it a trend-setter for the country and beyond. The New Zealand Wine Fair Seoul has been timed in conjunction with the New Zealand Festival in Seoul. We are working with NZTE and MFAT to create an engaging event to introduce New Zealand wine to local trade, and aim to incorporate market visits and knowledge-sharing sessions.

JAPAN OVERVIEW

Tokyo, Japan’s leading imported wine market and vibrant mega-city, is the place to be when it comes to wine in Japan. New Zealand Winegrowers has a long established relationship with the NZ Wine Club, ensuring we are able to tap into a strong network of trade and consumers for well-attended and well-regarded events.

The New Zealand Wine Fair Tokyo aims to capitalise on this awareness by attracting visitors from the press, educators, F&B and retail sectors, and is an excellent opportunity for New Zealand producers to support their local distributors.

At the New Zealand Wine Fair Tokyo 2014 we had over 250 attendees across a range of categories, and will look to increase this for the 2015 event. Following winery feedback, we aim to further improve our database to attract a higher quality and quantity of trade attendees from all sectors.

" Another amazing

venue—it really sets off the

quality that is NZ wine..."

OVERVIEW

With total wine imports exceeding 10 million litres and New Zealand exports experiencing double-digit growth in both value and volume, Singapore is becoming increasingly important as a market in its own right as well as a gateway to the rest of south-east Asia. Singapore’s unique position as a major trading port and financial centre, combined with a compact geographical area and English-speaking population, means that New Zealand’s target market is grouped together in an ideal combination of luxury hotels, restaurants and retailers.

Singapore is growing in importance for New Zealand wine, overtaking Hong Kong and Japan in 2014 to become the second-largest Asian export destination. As a logistics hub and regional trend-setter, what is hot in Singapore influences neighbouring Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. The timing of this event has been moved to January, with the aim of linking it to the Annual Trade Tastings in London, Dublin and Stockholm so that you can make the most of your international travel with New Zealand Winegrowers.


Event format• Wines will be shown and poured by the winery representative/importer• There will be separate sessions to this event. The trade tasting will run from 2-5pm. A consumer

session may also be held, and if so, will follow the trade session from 7-9pm• A levy funded masterclass will be held prior to the trade tasting. This will be funded by levy and

Vinexpo HIGHLIGHTS

"This has been the best wine trade show I have

been involved with for a decade!"

"Huge event, lots of international trade from around Asia, great source of contacts and potential business."


OVERVIEW OF EVENTS

SHANGHAI OVERVIEW

Shanghai is China’s gateway to the world, a cosmopolitan mega-city that never sleeps. With an ever-widening array of five-star hotels, international restaurants and wine bars serving an increasingly sophisticated urban population, Shanghai is China’s largest and most competitive wine market.

At the 2015 event, we had over 400 F&B, media, retailers, educators, importers and distributors attending, with participating wineries appreciating the quality of visitors. We included some further Kiwi elements including mussels, water and a sustainability themed photo booth. All these elements created a memorable environment for the attending wineries to tell their stories.

BEIJING OVERVIEW

Beijing is the capital city of China and home to some 20 million people. The mainly middle-class population is well educated, with relatively high numbers of graduates and government officials. As the second wine market in China after Shanghai, Beijing is developing a wine culture that overlaps well with New Zealand’s full-bodied reds and Pinot Noirs, wines that are more relevant to the dense, rich, meaty northern-Chinese cuisine.

Capitalising on the success of our 2015 event, we plan to return to Beijing in May 2016 with a strongly New Zealand-branded event, including cultural elements such as kapa haka. With over 400 attendees in 2015, we will look to broaden and develop this further by increasing high-level F&B, retail and media participation.

GUANGZHOU OVERVIEW

Southern China is booming and its leading city is Guangzhou (formerly Canton). The third largest city in China, Guangzhou is a major trading port and service industry hub situated on the Pearl River Delta, across the border from Hong Kong. With local tastes favouring fresh, light clean flavours, we believe that the gateway city to southern China is a good potential market for NZ’s white wines and Pinot Noir.

For our last event in the city in 2014, we worked with a new event partner and achieved great attendance to the trade tasting, both in relation to quantity and quality. In 2015, we are looking to expand our databases further in this exciting market in order to target the high end decision makers.

This event has been timed for easy of travel to the Shanghai, Beijing events prior to Vinexpo Asia Pacific in Hong Kong 24-16 May.

OVERVIEW

Vinexpo Asia-Pacific, held every two years in Hong Kong, is one of the largest international trade shows for the Asian region. New Zealand has successfully hosted the national pavilion at the previous two shows (held in 2012 and 2014) with extremely positive feedback from attending wineries.

Vinexpo Asia-Pacific provides an opportunity to reach influential trade representatives from across Asia. At the 2014 show, the event attracted 16,778 visitors from 22 countries, up 6.3% compared to 2012. We believe this will continue to increase.

The 2014 show has proven Vinexpo Asia-Pacific as a viable opportunity to set New Zealand wine apart from our competitors, through premium wine tastings and business meetings with a wide range of Asian wine trade.

The New Zealand Wine pavilion in 2014 was named by the organisers as "the best stand of the show", and we aim to repeat that success for the pavilion and for our participants, some of whom commented that it was the "best trade show they had attended in years".

We are keeping our prices competitive for this event as we want to ensure all wineries have the option to participate. You can participate in this event alone, on a joint table or as part of a group.

SUMMARY OF EVENT

THE WHAT & HOW

Event format

• New Zealand Wine pavilion to showcase your wines, brands and stories, which collectively becomes a category presentation


• Each winery will have approximately 1–1.5m of counter space with shared storage and meeting area

• Companies may participate in the pavilion independently, or as part of a group or regional association

• Levy funded masterclasses will be held on the pavilion throughout the three day exhibition.

• We have added the Shanghai and Beijing wine fairs to this tour for you to make the most of this time in market. We hope you take advantage of this opportunity to join us in showcasing your wines across the entire tour

CANADA HIGHLIGHTS

CanadaEvents 2015 – 2016

Canada is a high-value growth market for New Zealand wine which is reflected in the 2015-16 Canada events programme. Because wine retail out lets in most Canadian provinces are run by Liquor Boards, it is important that New Zealand wineries invest in Liquor Board programmes. T his year we are investigating opportunities to partner with a minimum of three key Liquor Boards. We wil l be holding New Zealand in a Glass events (formerly New Zealand Wine Fairs) in Vancouver, Ottawa, and Toronto as well as having presence at a number of high-profile consumer festivals.

OVERVIEW OF EVENTS

VANCOUVER (BRITISH COLUMBIA)

British Columbia (BC) is the fourth largest market for New Zealand wine in Canada, with New Zealand sales at 192,376* cases per year and growing by 18.8%. Vancouver is the perfect fit for New Zealand wine as it is a highly developed, educated wine market that is excited about food, wine and lifestyle with an appreciation for cool climate wines. Recent changes in BC policies have made the market more competitive and it is key for us to remain a major player by having events that promote New Zealand wines.

New Zealand Winegrowers will continue to schedule their wine event to coincide with the New Zealand Thematic in the British Columbia Liquor Distribution Branch (BCLDB) stores. This marketing combination has proven successful in increasing New Zealand wine sales going into the summer season. New Zealand Winegrowers is also pleased to partner with the Vancouver International Wine Festival in hosting a wine and food event to attract wine minded consumers, as well as wine media and trade.

OTTAWA (ONTARIO)

Ottawa is Canada’s capital - a sophisticated, government driven city. Ottawa's inhabitants are characterised by high disposable income and an appreciation for fine food and wine. While Toronto is the largest city in Ontario, it is key to remember the significance of Ottawa as a thriving and affluent wine market influenced by Quebec and European wine preferences. It is important that we build our category within this knowledgeable, wine consuming market.

The Ottawa New Zealand in a Glass event allows us to reach and build a larger market within Ontario for trade, media and consumer, and demonstrates to the Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) our commitment and support of other key Ontario markets. Due to Ottawa’s proximity to the Quebec border, this event will also reach key Société des Alcools du Québec (SAQ) product consultants, on trade buyers and sommeliers from the Hull/Gatineau area in Quebec who will be invited to attend.

TORONTO (ONTARIO)

Ontario remains the number one market for New Zealand wine sales in Canada, with sales of over 303,421 cases per year, growing by 10.1%. The New Zealand wine event in Toronto is the flagship event in Canada, with over 300 trade and 300 consumers attending each year. For wineries active in Ontario, this event is the ideal platform to showcase wines to the key LCBO buyers, media, on trade sommeliers and buyers, all of whom greatly influence the listings and pull through of wine in this province.

Each year, New Zealand Winegrowers schedules their wine events to coincide with the New Zealand Vintages Release in the LCBO stores. This marketing combination has proven to successfully increase New Zealand wine sales going into the summer season. We will continue to work with the charity Ashley’s Angels for Sick Kids, as well as our media partner The Globe & Mail.

Including Events in UK, Ireland, Germany, Switzerland & SwedenNO FEE INCRE A SES!


OVERVIEW

The Swiss wine market is well developed, it is one of the leading countries globally per capita wine consumption, but only produces a little more than a third of the wine consumed there. Opportunities for New Zealand wineries lie mainly in the German speaking north of the country, where the affiliation for Swiss, French or Italian wines is less deep rooted than in the other regions.

Zürich is one of the most expensive cities in the world and home to a large community of affluent expats thanks to several financial institutions and pharmaceutical companies being based there. Wines command a high average price in both on and off trade. Zürich is also where most of the medium and large wine importers are based, as well as the majority of the wine press. Switzerland has a number of internationally renowned wine experts, including Paolo Basso, acknowledged as one of the wine world’s greatest sommeliers, Rene Gabriel, Switzerland’s most famous wine writer and Chandra Kurt who has written more than 20 wine books.

We plan to run this event in association with Vinum, Europe’s largest-circulation wine magazine with more than 98,500 printed copies. As well as using their databases to recruit visitors via newsletter and direct marketing from specialist retailers, importers, sommeliers, restaurants, hotels and media, advertisements will be placed in Vinum magazine and on their website.


Event format• Wines will be either shown on table and poured by the winery representative/importer, or they

can be on a self pour table if you have no one in market to do this• Masterclasses will run alongside the trade event. These will be funded by the levy and wines

selected will be from those that have performed well in the blind tastings held in New Zealand • The trade tasting will run from 2.30-5.00pm and the consumer event from 5.00-7.30pm

NEW EVENT

OVERVIEW

Germany is one of the top five global wine markets, with 45 million wine drinkers and just under half of these drinking once a week. Despite the tendency for wine purchases being made at the hard discount chains, an increasing number of people are buying wine online, which generally commands a higher price per bottle than traditional outlets. Off trade spend for everyday occasions has increased, and when people do spend in the on trade the amount spent has been raised too.*

Hamburg is the second largest city in Germany and one of the most affluent in Europe. Our 2013 event here was well attended with a number of high profile sommeliers, media and bloggers interested in New Zealand wines resulting in some positive post event coverage online.

This year we will work alongside ff.k PR on this event. Ff.k are based in Hamburg and have 15 years of experience working to promote wine regions around the world to the trade. With their comprehensive database and personal contacts we would expect to attract around 100 key trade contacts to this event.

New Zealand’s wines sit mainly at the niche end of the market due to the price points so we will continue to target specialist retailers and sommeliers through a New Zealand wine masterclass hosted by a renowned German wine expert. We will also look to attract importers and media to this event. *Wine Intel l igence 2013


Event format• Wines will be either shown on a table and poured by the winery representative/importer, or they

can be on a self pour table if you have no one in market to do this• A masterclass will run in advance of the trade event opening. This will be levy funded and wines

selected will be from those that have performed well in the blind tastings held in New Zealand • The trade tasting will run from 2.00-6.00pm

What will I get for my investment?Coordination with event organisers - equipment, freight logistics; exposure to organiser's database - PR, guest recruitment; full catalogue showing wine details, RRP and stockists available to visitors; post event feedback report available to all participants.

New Release Trade TastingWhere: London, UKWhen: 28 October 2015

OVERVIEW

The New Release tasting represents a cost effective way to put your newly released wines in front of A list media and trade. With a packed London wine trade calendar this event remains a consistently effective way to present a vast showcase of wines to this influential target audience.

The self pour format appeals to a wide range of key trade; 2014 guests included Oz Clarke, Matthew Jukes, Rosemary George MW and Peter Richards MW as well as buyers from the Co-operative Group, Marks & Spencer, Majestic Wine and a number of independent retailers. This event is also important for wineries seeking distribution, as agents and distributors make contact in advance of the event to get information on the wineries looking for distribution before coming to taste on the day.

The media attending this event are looking to see how New Zealand wines have evolved and would like to see as much representation at this event from as many wineries as possible to get a good overview of the styles that are being produced. In order to generate more media interest we would like wineries to enter wines from as many regions, styles and varietals as they can so we can showcase the diversity of wines that New Zealand has to offer.

OVERVIEW

Back for 2016 is our incredibly popular London Annual Trade and Consumer tasting. This is the New Zealand Wine event to be a part of if you are active in the UK market or are interested in finding distribution here.

This event attracts the key players in the UK trade from supermarket and independent retail buyers, importers, distributors, sommeliers and on trade purchasers to wine and trade media. It is where opinions are formed and commented on in the media. Articles were published in Harpers, Off Licence News, The Drinks Business, Winebiz, Meiningers Wine Business International and jancisrobinson.com following the 2015 event.

Bringing together around 600 trade and 500 consumers, this event shows real engagement and excitement from visitors at being able to taste around 500 wines from over 100 New Zealand wineries. The additional masterclasses and self pour tables are a draw for guests, and allow us to highlight specific varietals or regions and gain increased publicity for the event.

OVERVIEW

New Zealand wine sales through the Swedish monopoly have increased by 45% in volume since 2011, so we are well on the way to meeting the potential market for New Zealand wines identified in the 2011 Wine Intelligence report. 43.5% of New Zealand wines sold are in the premium segment at above SEK 100 / NZD 15.50 and New Zealand occupies the number one position for wines sold in the +SEK 100 price point.

We will return to Stockholm in 2016 after a successful 2014 event which attracted almost 150 trade, including a strong turnout from on trade, importers, media and Systembolaget staff, as well as buyer Sebastian Braun. We will also repeat our post trade consumer event which we had a great response to in 2014, with just over 150 people paying to attend.

Börje Erikkson from the Nordic Wine Institute will work on communications around the event. He has successfully ensured the attendance of quality trade visitors at all the events we have previously hosted in Stockholm.

The timing of this event allows wineries who travel over for our London and Dublin Annual Trade tastings to maximise the use of their time in Europe. We have also been competing with many other trade events in the busy October period and hosting the event in January should raise our potential visitor numbers.


Event format• Wines will be shown on tables and poured by the winery representative/importer

• A masterclass will run alongside during the trade event; this will be funded by the levy and wines selected will be from those that have performed well in the blind tastings held in New Zealand

• The trade tasting will run from 12.00-5.30pm, the consumer event will run from 5.30-7.30pm


COST $$ PER WINE COST (1-5 WINES) TABLE (6-12 WINES)



THE WHY

• Opportunity to engage with buyers/key opinion formers and consumers in the Swedish market


• Meet importers if you are looking for a local distributor

THE WHO

European media, on-trade buyers/sommeliers/sommelier schools and sales agents, retail buyers, importers/distributors, consumers and Wine Club members local to Stockholm area. We would expect around 150 trade and 150 consumers to attend.Suitability for wineries: New to market, existing exporters, regional bodies.

CONDITIONS

Require participation of a minimum 35 wines and nine tables or equivalent for this event to be a compelling proposition for guests and financially viable.

OVERVIEW

ProWein will open its doors again in Düsseldorf from 13 – 15 March 2016. This key international trade event now reaches over 52,000 visitors, drawn by the 6,000 exhibitors present from 50 countries.

ProWein 2015 was overwhelmingly positive for New Zealand Winegrowers – 25 wineries showcasing 150 wines on our stand with a great location in the centre of the busiest hall of the show. With the majority of wineries aiming to meet current and potential distributors/clients and 75% saying this objective had been achieved to great extent, this reinforces why we have a presence at this key international wine trade show. The number of wineries taking part on our stand increased but we also saw a huge increase in the number of wineries taking part with distributors, which is a positive sign that the show is very important for New Zealand wineries to be part of.

Our 2016 stand will have a prime position within the show, close to the North entrance where most of the visitor traffic originates. To attract more visitors to our stand, the popular educational area will host a comprehensive masterclass programme each day.


Event format• ProWein will be open to visitors each day from 10am-7pm. Winery representatives will be required

on stand at all times during the opening hours to pour samples from their counter. It is advisable to bring a colleague to do this to allow for meetings

• Levy funded masterclasses on stand will be held during show opening hours

What will I get for my investment?All stand organisation and build, liaison with Messe Duesseldorf for online and print catalogue entry. Design and print of stand catalogue. Logistics and equipment: Access to consolidated freight shipment, glasses, spittoons, fridges, water, coffee, snacks. Meeting Facilities: Participation Option 1 - Bookable shared meeting facilities on stand. Participation Option 2 – Own meeting table on stand. Collateral including catalogues, maps, varietal and regional guides, pens will be available for you to use.

T his year's events program will have us return to New York and San Francisco for our annual New Zealand Wine Fairs, our largest and most comprehensive trade and media events in the US. For 2015-16 we wil l be continuing with the self-pour tastings in three new cities that are all great markets for New Zealand wine - Houston, T X; Boston, MA; and Honolulu, HI - while re-visiting Los Angeles, CA after a few years off. We wil l again facilitate a shipment of wines to be sent to the Wine Spectator for their annual New Zealand wine tasting. T hanks to the support of our sponsors, O-I New Zealand, we are excited to be able to offer more affordable event opportunities to wineries in 2015-16 as well as a greater variety of premium New Zealand wine events to engage key US trade and media.

New Zealand Wine Trade TastingWhere & When: Houston, TX / 17 September 2015, Boston, MA / 14 October 2015, Los Angeles, CA / April 2016, Honolulu, HI / June 2016

OVERVIEW

After the success of our self pour events in 2014/2015, we will once again host these tastings, whilst

taking the opportunity to visit new cities that are key markets for New Zealand wine. This year, due

to generous sponsorship from O-I New Zealand, we are delighted to offer these events to you at a

lower participation fee than in previous years. With your involvement, we can ensure we are showing

the trade a larger and more diverse range of New Zealand wine this year.

Firstly, Texas is amongst the top five states for total wine consumption and Houston is the most

sophisticated city within the state. Air New Zealand has added Houston as a US gateway and will be

flying nontop service from there to Auckland starting in December 2015. We expect this market to

only get better for New Zealand wine.

Secondly, it has been over four years since we have hosted a self pour tasting in Los Angeles and we

feel it is time to go back. LA continues to be a major market for New Zealand wine and opportunity

there is huge, and we have received numerous requests that we hold another event there.

Thirdly, we have added Boston to the line-up, a valuable addition that holds great potential for New

Zealand wine. Boston is one of the top metropolitan areas for imported wine consumption.

And finally, the fourth city we have added is Honolulu. Hawaii shares many similarities to New

Zealand as an island nation and we have found that New Zealand wine can have a great amount of

success here.

OVERVIEW

The ever popular wine fair will return to both San Francisco and New York in 2016. These two

cities represent the top selling cities for New Zealand wine and the New York metropolitan area

continues to maintain its spot as the top market for imported wine.

We will be changing the timing this year to have our events in early March, so that they take place

before ProWein in Germany. We hope to take advantage of the large numbers of winery personnel

traveling to that event, and have them stop in the US on their way to Europe. One of the comments

we hear consistently from attendees is that they enjoy speaking with the winery personnel versus

the local importer, and we aim to keep improving the value of our New Zealand Wine Fairs for both

our exhibitors and attendees. This year, due to generous sponsorship from O-I, we are delighted to

offer these events to you at a lower participation fee than in previous years. With your involvement,

we can ensure we are showing the trade a larger and more diverse range of New Zealand wine

this year.

The Wine Fair is geared for both press and trade. We will continue to work with importers and

winery representatives to ensure that we have the right attendees at the event. As with previous

years we will spend significant time on updating our databases to ensure we have the most current

list of influencers included. We will also look to local media in promoting our events to local buyers.

3.2 The objective of the NZW Global Events Programme is to

promote the New Zealand Wine brand by providing a platform for

individual wineries to collectively promote their brands at premium

wine events hosted by NZW in target markets throughout the year.

3.3 By participating in any one or more of the Events of the NZW

Global Events Programme, Participating Wineries will receive event-

focused support and expertise from NZW with the aim of helping

to increase Participating Wineries’ presence in, and insights into,

the targeted markets, and to raise awareness among Participating

Wineries as to what they need to do to achieve increased market

growth in the future. While the aim of the NZW Global Events

Programme is to promote and facilitate trade opportunities for

Participating Wineries, the Programme Organiser cannot guarantee

any particular outcomes from participation in any Event or the

Programme generally.

Subscription (2+ markets). Wineries cannot opt to pay the 100%

loading on Events in any additional markets and remain a single

market Global Events Subscriber (1 market only).

6 EVENT PARTICIPATION FEE

6.1 All Participating Wineries, including Global Event Subscribers,

must pay the relevant Event Participation Fee for each Event they

register to participate in.

6.2 The Event Participation Fee differs across target markets

and Events and is calculated according to the table size at which

the Participating Winery shows its Participating Wine(s), and/or

according to the number of Participating Wine(s) it shows. The Event

Participation Fee for each Event will be specified in the relevant Event

proposal set out in the Global Events Booklet.

6.3 Where Participating Wineries participate in an Event as part of

a Joint or Group table, each Participating Winery will be invoiced its

share of the relevant Event Participation Fee calculated according to

the following formula:

Event

Participation Fee x

6.4 Where Participating Wineries register for an Event as part of a

Joint or Group table, any Participating Winery that is not a Global

Events Subscriber will be liable for a 100% loading fee on their

share of the Event Participation Fee (as calculated in accordance

with clause 6.3 above). This clause also applies when agents are

registering on behalf of a winery or wineries.

6.5 Each year, the estimated Event Participation Fees will be set out

in the Global Events Booklet and will be subject to exchange rate

fluctuations and participation levels. While the Programme Organiser

will make every attempt to ensure that Event Participation Fees

do not exceed the published estimate, the Programme Organiser

reserves the right to adjust costs where necessary. Increased costs

will be invoiced following the Event.

6.6 All Event registrations received after the registration deadline

will be subject to an additional 5% loading fee on top of the Event

Participation Fee (Late Registration Penalty). This penalty applies

irrespective of whether the Participating Winery is a Global Events

Subscriber.

6.7 The Event Participation Fee will be invoiced as follows:

(a) 50% of the Event Participation Fee on registration; and

(b) 50% of the Event Participation Fee 2 months prior to the Event

(Full Payment Deadline).

6.8 NZW reserves the right to prohibit any winery from participating

in any Event where that winery has not paid the Event Participation

Fee in full by the Full Payment Deadline and no refund will be

provided.

6.9 No Participating Winery shall be permitted to show wines

on behalf of any non-Participating Winery. Any Participating

Winery found to be in breach of this clause may be excluded from

participation in the relevant Event and/or the Programme and any

Event Subscription and/or Event Participation Fee forfeited.

6.10 All Event registrations, unless otherwise indicated, must be

made via nzwinemarketing.com. If a winery does not register via

the website, or has not gained approval for Event participation from

NZW, they will not be able to participate in the Event.

6.11 The application of the 100% loading on Event Participation Fees

at each Event is at the discretion of the Programme Organiser.

7 EVENT DATE CHANGES

7.1 Where venue availability (or any other factor) necessitates

a change of date for any Event, the Programme Organiser will

endeavour to give as much prior notice as possible to Participating

Wineries in the case of the Event date changing. NZW will not

be liable for any costs or other liabilities incurred by Participating

Wineries relating to the changed Event date (e.g. travel,

accommodation).

8 CANCELLATION BY PARTICIPATING WINERY

8.1 Where a Participating Winery cancels its participation in any

Event, any refund of the Event Participation Fee, or part thereof, to

a Participating Winery who has registered for and paid the Event

Participation Fee, shall be calculated as follows:

(a) cancellation 4 weeks or less prior to the Event: no refund;

(b) cancellation 4-8 weeks prior to the Event: 50% of the Event

Participation Fee will be refunded;{ {Number of Participating Wine(s) shown

by that Participating Winery

Total number of Participating Wine(s)

shown at the relevant Joint or Group table

nzwine.com/members


(c) cancellation 8-12 weeks prior to the Event: 75% of the Event

Participation Fee will be refunded; and

(d) cancellation 12 weeks or more prior to the Event: an

administration fee of $85 (+ GST) will be charged.

8.2 If Event Participation Fee or part thereof has not been paid

prior to the Participating Winery cancelling their participation, the

Participating Winery is still responsible for and will be invoiced for

cancellation accordingly.

9 CANCELLATION BY NZW

9.1 NZW reserves the right to cancel any Event if it, in its sole

discretion, deems it necessary. NZW will not be liable for any costs

or other liabilities incurred by Participating Wineries relating to the

cancelled Event (e.g. travel, accommodation).

9.2 NZW will provide as much advance notice as possible to

Participating Wineries in the case of an Event having to be cancelled.

10 GUIDELINES FOR TABLE OPTIONS

10.1 The general guidelines outlined below apply to all Events

unless otherwise specified in Event proposals or by the Programme

Organiser. Due to different Event formats and country specifications,

in the case of issues arising the final decision is left to the Programme

Organiser’s discretion. If you have any queries in relation to these

guidelines please contact the NZW Global Events Team for the Event

in question.

10.2 There are three options for participating in an Event by table:

(a) Individual table (1 Participating Winery only);

(b) Joint table (2 Participating Wineries only); or

(c) Group table (3-5 Participating Wineries only).

10.3 Wineries who have not signed up for the Global Events

Subscription will be charged a 100% loading fee for the cost of the

Individual table, or, in the case of a Joint or Group table, on top of

their share of the Event Participation Fee, calculated in accordance

with clauses 6.3 and 6.4.

10.4 Invoicing will be done through one central New Zealand contact.

If a Participating Winery is sharing a table and wishes to be invoiced

separately from the other Participating Wineries on their Joint or

Group table, they can do so, but will each incur an $85 administration

fee and should indicate their wish to be invoiced separately when

registering for the Event on nzwinemarketing.com.

10.5 There must be one point of contact designated in New

Zealand and one point of contact in the specific market for all

communications with NZW.

10.6 Each table (Individual, Joint or Group) will have brand exposure

via invitations/name signs at the Event and an entry into the Event

Catalogue which includes company logo, winery synopsis, contact

details and a list of wines on show.

10.7 Due to space constraints at Events, a maximum of 2-3

Participating Winery/importer representatives is permitted behind

the table area at any one time (unless otherwise specified in Event

proposals/updates or by the Programme Organiser).

10.8 A Participating Winery/representative is required to attend

the table area for the entirety of the scheduled Event - i.e. for those

Events with trade and consumer elements a Participating Winery

cannot opt to take part in only one of the two sessions and must

remain at the Event until after the Event is scheduled to finish. If a

Participating Winery chooses to leave a session, they will be charged

an additional 25% of the total Event Participation Fee.

10.9 Each Event will specify the maximum number of wines that can

be shown per table. Please refer to individual Event information.

Joint Table (2 wineries only)

10.10 Joint participation allows 2 Participating Wineries to present

wines in an allocated space. Joint participation enables wineries to

take advantage of cost savings by sharing the cost of a table.

10.11 Wineries wishing to sign up for a Joint table must contact the

appropriate Global Events Team member in the first instance.

10.12 The 2 Participating Wineries sharing a table/counter will

together be entitled to the same table space, catalogue space

(including synopsis length), etc as an individual Participating Winery

paying the complete Event Participation Cost. Individual winery logos

can be shown in the catalogue and on other such collateral.

Group Table/Counter (3-5 wineries)

10.13 Group participation allows 3-5 Participating Wineries to

present wines in an allocated space under an umbrella brand. Group

participation enables wineries to take advantage of cost savings by

sharing the cost of a table.

10.14 Wineries wishing to sign up for a Group table must contact the

NZW Global Events Team in the first instance.

10.15 Groups are to have only one table name for entry into the

Event and also for all invoicing. For example, the table name can be

‘Wines of X’ or a distributor name. Please note that there are physical

limitations to the length of group names relating to counter signage,

catalogue space, etc which are determined on an event by event

basis.

10.16 The Group will be entitled to the same table space, catalogue

space (including synopsis length), etc as an individual Participating

Winery paying the complete Event Participation Fee. Only one table

name, one logo, one synopsis and one set of contact details can

appear on the group’s catalogue page and on other such collateral.

NZW Table

10.17 The NZW Table area is for Participating Wineries who are not

able to attend and who cannot send, or do not have, an agent.

Placing Participating Wines on the NZW Table/Counter gains

exposure and often establishes agent/distribution contacts. No

Participating Winery representative or Participating Winery agent

who has Participating Wines shown on the NZW table is permitted to

pour these wines at this Event.

10.18 The inclusion of a NZW Table at Events is at the discretion of

NZW.

10.19 Wine on the NZW Table will be grouped by varietal and poured

by NZW staff or staff sourced by NZW.

10.20 Wineries participating on the NZW Table will have a space in

the Event Catalogue to show Participating Wine details and contact

details. Event Catalogues will be made available to all visitors to

the table/counter, as well as winery brochures if supplied by the

Participating Winery.

10.21 Contact details of visitors to the table/counter and feedback on

the Participating Wines sampled will be provided to the Participating

Wineries.


10.22 A maximum of 3 Participating Wines per Participating Winery

is allowed on the NZW Table, unless otherwise permitted by the

Programme Organiser.

11 ACCURACY OF INFORMATION, PUBLICITY AND CONDUCT

OF PARTICIPATING WINERIES

11.1 Any advertising, promotion or publicity relating or referring to

participation in the Programme must not be false, misleading or

deceptive. Participating Wineries must ensure the information they

supply to the Programme Organiser is truthful, accurate and not

misleading. Participating Wineries must let the Programme Organiser

know as soon as a mistake is discovered and the Programme

Organiser will endeavour to rectify the mistake wherever possible.

However, the Programme Organiser accepts no responsibility or

liability for any loss or damage incurred through, or subsequent to,

the use of an Event Catalogue and/or its contents.

11.2 The primary role of Participating Wineries at Events is to

conduct business with trade, media and consumers who may be at

such Events, including the pouring and tasting of samples. While

tasting wine is an integral part of such Events, consumption must at

all times be moderate and responsible. The Programme Organiser

reserves the right to exclude from any Event, any Participating

Winery representative who is visibly intoxicated. If this means that

a Participating Winery stand is left unattended, the Programme

Organiser will endeavour to ensure that the Participating Winery’s

stand is staffed and wines poured on the Participating Winery’s

behalf. If a cost is incurred in staffing the stand, this cost will be

passed on to the Participating Winery in question. Exclusion of any

Participating Winery representative from an Event shall be notified to

the Participating Winery in New Zealand.

11.3 Participating Wineries must ensure that any service of wine (in

the form of tastings or otherwise) undertaken by them is responsible

and, in particular, that they seek to prevent intoxication and refuse

service to minors or those who appear to be intoxicated.

11.4 Participating Wineries must comply with the licensing

arrangements at Event venues.

11.5 Participating Wineries must comply with the directions and

requests of the Programme Organiser. Without limitation, directions

and requests of the Board and the Programme Organiser may apply

to the logistical and structural set-up of an Event and the conduct of

the Participating Winery.

11.6 Any Participating Winery found to be in breach of these terms

and conditions, or any Participating Winery who is found to have

engaged in actions that may bring the industry into disrepute or

compromise the integrity of the Programme as determined by the

Programme Organiser, may be excluded from participation in the

Programme and any Event Subscription and/or Event Participation

Fee forfeited.

11.7 Where applicable, a Participating Winery must comply with any

relevant legal requirements in relation to the service wine at an Event.

For example, there are restrictions on pouring wine at events in New

South Wales, Queensland and Victoria in Australia. Where any other

cases arise, the Programme Organiser will endeavour to give as much

prior notice as possible to Participating Wineries.

12 DISPUTES

12.1 The decision of the Programme Organiser in the matter of any

dispute or doubt arising from the interpretation of these terms and

conditions or in relation to the conduct of the Programme or any

Event is final.

13 DEBT RECOVERY

13.1 If a Participating Winery fails to pay any Global Events

Subscription, Event Participation Fee (including where the

Participating Winery has cancelled its participation in one or more

Events), or Late Registration Penalty within 90 days of the due date,

the Programme Organiser may restrict that Participating Winery from

participating in all Events until payment is received in full. In addition,

the Participating Winery’s non-payment will be reported to the Board

at the next Board meeting.

13.2 Debts outstanding after 120 days will be transferred to a debt

collection company for recovery. The cost of collection may be

recovered from the Participating Winery.

14 INSURANCE

14.1 The Participating Winery is solely responsible for arranging

public liability insurance in respect of any loss or damage arising

from participation in any part of the Programme. For the avoidance

of doubt, the Programme Organiser will not be liable for any loss

or damage caused or incurred by the Participating Winery from

participating in any part of the Programme.

14.2 Participating Wineries should make themselves aware of what

they are responsible for in terms of stock insurance. It is the advice of

the Programme Organiser that all Participating Wineries should take

out an ‘all risks’ business insurance policy on all stock entering the

Programme. For the avoidance of doubt, the Programme Organiser

accepts no responsibility for the safety or integrity of Participating

Wines.

14.3 Participating Wineries should also be aware that both freight

companies and organisers may have ‘limits of liability’ clauses on

individual bottles which means they will only pay a percentage of the

value of a bottle. It is therefore worth getting an ‘all risks’ policy to

cover end to end.

14.4 Please be reminded of the necessity of taking out

comprehensive travel and medical insurance for travel. We

recommend that no one leaves the country without a robust policy

including transport cancellation.

15 OTHER – See separate document

15.1 Any freight service (storage, handling and shipping of

wine samples) that are organised for an Event are intended for

Participating Wineries and Participating Wines for that Event only.

Non-participating Wineries cannot partake of this freight service nor

can Participating Wineries include additional wine intended for other

purposes unless agreed with the Programme Organiser.
