Winery Business Valuation,
Purchase or Sales
The wine industry has experienced considerable change over the past few
years as the importance of growing total business value has become an
increasing priority. Whether the goal is family legacy or eventual sale and
exit, owners and operators are aligned in the need to optimize the value of
their brands, distribution systems and operating platforms in addition to
their estates and hard assets.
Unlike many staple commodities, wine is an affordable luxury and every
brand must differentiate itself on multiple levels appealing to the discretionary
purchasing behavior of consumers. Understanding the many drivers of value
and how to effectively influence them will benefit owners, senior managers,
professional service providers and estate planning specialists.
And if you own a winery, vineyard or wine brand or are considering the
purchase or sale of any of these, this program is a must to better acquaint
you with the purchase and sale process. Our experienced faculty will guide
you through key aspects of the process.
