The drink industry's biggest secret

The international movement of Beers, Wines and Spirits (BWS) is a specialised field of logistics which has, historically, been controlled by a small number of logistics providers.

After further investment in its global network, Allport initiated its BWS service offering in 2006 for major retail clients. Drawing on it's 'local knowledge worldwide' philosophy, Allport opened up supply chains for its customers, allowing them to exploit opportunities through increased knowledge and expertise, directly in the sourcing regions.In just three years the success of Allport's BWS service has been considerable.

"We estimate that in 2009, Allport's customers will import around 40% of the UK's off-trade wine market." says Allport Supply chain Management Director, Danny Clayton."

"It is testament to the confidence that the UK Supermarkets and importers have in our solutions and day to day management, that they perceived no risk entrusting these critical products to our care."

"Over the last three years we have extended our supply chain systems, tailoring new capability for the BWS market, including management of European producers and solutions for the smaller, specialist, importer."
