Organised by Harpers publishers, William Reed Business Media, it allows buyers to hold trading discussions through a series of half hour meetings with both existing and new wine suppliers.
Over 100 buyers from all channels of the industry have signed up to attend including those from restaurants, pub and hotel groups, Michelin star restaurants and leading independent wine merchants and wholesalers. They will be able to make meetings with over 30 suppliers from all the world looking to gain further distribution in the UK.
The programme will also include a number of trade workshops giving buyers the opportunity to hear first hand from leading trade experts who will be looking at different aspects of buying, selling, negotiating, ranging and managing wine in different channels.
