Infographic: why the on-trade is losing out on wine sales

Published:  26 August, 2014

Get a snapshot of what drives consumer's decisions about what to drink when they're out in bars and restaurants by checking out our infographic on the subject.

Harpers second exclusive consumer report, Demystifying Restaurant and Bar Consumers, clearly illustrates what makes the average British consumer tick when it comes to choosing drinks while out and about, and how wine could do better. The report shows that on-trade is potentially losing out on thousands of pounds of trade a day because of its inability to sell wine effectively. 

The industry has long struggled to compile an accurate picture of this segment of the market, and our report, which includes over 1,000 consumer interviews, gives a much clearer picture across the regions.

We have compiled an infographic of the report's main findings, designed so that the on-trade can learn how to maximise sales and connect with consumers. If the on-trade doesn't improve its performance, wine may increasingly be relegated to a stay-at-home category as supermarkets and specialist retailers steal share.

Once again, the UK wine trade came up short when it came to connecting with consumers. It needs to find better and more innovative ways of getting its message across.

The positive news to come from our research is that drinkers of all ages from across the country are willing to engage with wine, but are looking for more innovation, instruction and motivation.
