Well, that’s pretty much it for 2017, at least from the team at Harpers, although as we down iQuills until 2018, we know that most of you out there in the trade are still at full tilt, meeting the festive thirst of the public at this busy time of year.

It’s certainly been an interesting - if bumpy – twelve months since the dawn of 2017, never short of news, but also great examples of how the drinks trade continues to adapt, adopt and thrive, even during challenging times.

Looking ahead over the next few frantic days, there are predictions that this Christmas-New Year trading period will deliver for the food and drink world, as consumers treat themselves, their families and friends to some well-earned luxuries after an uncertain year.

Let’s hope that is the case and business is good for all; that old Saint Nick delivers over this crucial selling period, putting drinks businesses in good stead for whatever 2018 may dish up.

We also hope that everyone will find the time to chill out this Christmas, while indulging in some of the wonderful medley of wines, spirits and beers that make our trade so varied, interesting and enjoyable.

Here’s wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year from all at Harpers.
