Brett Fleming, Armit Wines MD, commented: “We are incredibly proud of our results for the year ended September 2021. We are in the second year of exponential growth in what has been a tumultuous few years for many in the trade. Our results highlight that our strategy to focus on quality, alongside investing in more efficient routes to market and developing our sales channels, is working well.

The company also saw an increase in its customer base and added a number of new high-quality suppliers, such as Elena Walch, Viticoltori De Conciliis, both from Italy, Mendel Wines from Argentina, with more on the way to broaden its offering of estate-grown and family-focused domains.

Fleming added: “This business model is proving sustainable, and we are already in a strong position in the early stages of our new fiscal year. Building on our current position and continuing our plans for even greater efficiency sets us well on track to reach our turnover targets for the next two to five years of £30m and beyond.”
