Concha y Toro Launches Wine App To Boost Supermarket Sales

Wine giant Concha y Toro has launched a new app, WineWise, in collaboration with Grand Central Creative.

The app seeks to simplify a category that is perceived by many shoppers in supermarkets to be inherently complex and nuanced.

Laurie Billson, customer marketing manager at Concha y Toro UK, said of the app, “Wine is a complicated category and easy to turn-off retailers and shoppers. WineWise (wine-wise.co.uk) offers a simple, free solution to covering the basics – stocking category best sellers and block-o-grams – while getting comfortable with fast facts to recommend wines to shoppers.”

She added that while "at a total level the wine category is worth £5.1bn – or over twice as much as carbonated soft drinks, [it] rarely gets focus from retailers. With just a few swipes, retailers can learn about wines, read case studies about stores making it work, and start turning those ideas into profit."
