Talking Wine Business
Christo Conradie,Vinpro
• Who are YOU?
• Why are YOU/ME here today?
• Looking back – Information day 2018.
• Focus on some performance indicators.
• Shifts, trends … momentum … will it last?
• Assumptions, scenarios, themes …. challenges & opportunities.
• What can/must WE do to encourage economic growth?
• Pencil down your OWN/NOW next steps … let’s EXECUTE!!!
Content
• Water in the dams (climate change) a better cash flow for majority, but not all … thankful.
• Average of “90 + 10 = 50” - indication of trend/shift (analise both top and bottom .. also relevant).
• Ageing vineyards, shrinking industry (losing 180 mil litres in next 5yr) raw material/cultivar offering?
• Determine your position on the ROI bell-shaped curve … honest view to determine YOUR next step.
• Boils down to a variation of two business models: “Compete on Price” vs “Have a Story”.
• Business partners/models to be revisited – relationships in value-chain, heated kitchen/room for all?
• Playing at home and/or away … adapt to changing situations … not two years are the same (agility).
• Marketing problem, or not? – getting into the customer mind, prior he/she enters the liquor shop/on-line.
• Crosswinds/Risk Register - EWC, Brexit, Excise, Illicit/Ales, Health, Eskom, Exchange Rate, Cannabis.
• Opportunities – Tourism, De-alcoholised, Empowerment, Technology/Science, MINDSET!!!
”Give me the short version”
Infoday 2018 (Predictions & Questions)
• Tight supply to move R/litre upwards.
• Income adjustment of 25% to 30% needed (Farm gate).
• Something has to give (less hectares).
• Stock:Sales ratio lowest in 15 years (± 0.35 vs 0.60).
• Impact on market – local or export volumes (-4.3%) to be reduced.
• Will we experience an upward trend in wine imports (import parity high).
• Who will be the highest bidder? UK, Germany, France, Denmark.
Production cost (above inflation with stagnant wine price)
Sustainability under pressure
• Profitability of the wine producers have been under severe pressure for quite some time.
• * Silver lining starting to take shape during 2018/’19.
More than 80% of SA wine producers are farming below a sustainable
net farm income of R30 000 per hectare

“A revised strategic framework with
aspirational targets needed to ensure an
adaptable, robust, globally competitive and profitable SA wine industry”
• richard rushton (@richardmrushton) tweeted at 9:40 PM on Thu, Dec 20, 2018:
A common view of ‘one’ wine industry would increase the likelihood of building strong, differentiated and sustainable
positions across markets and price points. Collaboratively working together in unison is the best way forward.
YOU to do list ....
