At a local level the viticulture industry makes a significant economic impact. The Hunter region is Australia’s oldest wine making region. The Hunter Valley Wine Industry Association (HVWIA) reported in 2010 that the Hunter Valley produce wine valued at $210 million which included $75 million of cellar door sales. Hunter vineyard and tourism industries both intricately linked, jointly injected $1.8 billion into the NSW economy in
Robert Mondavi built a state-of-the-art winery that became a premium winemaking facility as well as conveying a unique sense of Mondavi wines to the visitors. Soon the new winery became a place where the best practices in the production of premium wines were developed, eventually establishing the standard in the wine industry. Robert Mondavi was the first winemaker who assembled experts with various back¬grounds in the fields of viticulture and winemaking to give advice on the new wines. He also developed new technology that allowed special handling of grapes and the cold fermentation of white wines. Furthermore, Mondavi's company created process innovations, such as steel fermentation tanks, vacuum corking of bottles, and aging of wines in new French oak barrels. Dedicated to growing vines naturally, Robert Mon¬davi introduced a natural farming and conservation program that allowed enhanced grape quality, environmental protection, and worker health.
It’s easy to understand why Mondavi is primarily involved in the domestic market, with a small number of select partnerships and limited involvement with other wineries in different foreign markets. The company has always considered itself a family operation with an emphasis on high-end quality, and looked to work with similarly voiced companies that operated with similar motives. The partnerships are almost all in the ultra-premium and luxury premium segments, such as the highly prestigious Opus One offering, the minority interest in the Italy’s Ornellaia, and the Frescobaldi partnership that produced three more high-end wines in Montalcino, Italy. Amongst all their partnerships, only the Chilean joint venture produced any offering for the growing popular premium segment, with a Caliterra brand that sold 25% of their product in the United States.
In 2008 and 2009 the wine industry witness a rebound growth where there mid-priced and high-priced wines led growth. In 2010 the U.S. wine consumption reach
The United States is arguably the best place to grow grapes in the world. The United States boasts world-famous growing areas that rival France and Italy in quantity produced and in quality of wine, as the technology and weather are extremely similar. Napa and Sonoma Valleys are also key tourist attractions, providing a constant source of customers.
-the company became known for its ability to enhance a property’s value by creating unique, one of a kind properties with a small ultra-luxury residential style that differentiated it from other chain-like luxury competitors. Competitors include 2 groups of luxury hotels: corporate branded (Ritz-Carlton and Four Season) and “collections” of individually branded unique hotels (Orient-Express).
Alongside the 48th parallel, near the world’s northerly limit for viticulture, is the Champagne AOC. The Champagne only contains one AOC, while Burgundy includes over 110 AOCs. Burgundy has its AOCs spread over 8,450 hectares, equated to Champagne, who sits on 31,000 hectares with just its one AOC. “Only having one AOC for Champagne is largely driven by the commercial influence of the Grandes Marques who blend wines from throughout the Region and do not want regional & vineyard differences profiled” (Education: The Champagne).
Wine consumption in Japan is increasing annually. However, local producers are unable to supply its market demand because Japan is mostly unsuitable for viticulture. The terrain, soil composition, and especially climate conditions make the cultivation of grapes very difficult. This condition leads to high wine imports into japan from Europe, Australia and America. In terms of the major European wine exporters to Japan by country, France as part of Central and Eastern European (CEE) wine producers takes the top position when it comes to both variety and quantity, closely followed by Italy. France exported 504,000 hecto litres of wine only to Japan in 2011, accounting for 35% of the whole market (1). Japan imports 67% of total domestic wine consumption
According to Leiper “Transportation is the only link between the tourist-generating region and destination region”[2]So, transportation was a more interesting sector to discuss in the report but I tried to find a company which is related with all these main sub-sectors discussed above in the report. I have decided to look in the U.K market for such company because “Tourism is one of the largest industries in U.K, worth approximately 75.9 £ Billion to the U.K economy in 2002 and supporting around 2.1 million jobs.” [3] During my research on internet I found many companies offering services in the tourism of U.K but I have decided to choose “Simply Travel” because of its variety of services offering related with the accommodation, transportation and attractions.
The company’s target market appears to cater to every type of person in the luxury sector. This is reflected with its high class amenities, such as the Michelin restaurants and spas. The Mandarin Oriental International Limited Annual Report 2014 outlined that the leisure travellers have had higher demand recently over business travellers, as well as, “…higher spending leisure customers now making up close to 50% of the Group’s room nights” (Photos.mandarinoriental.com, 2014).
The high pressure luxury brand industry has evolved over the last few decades from a small and selective to a multibillion dollar arena offering significant potential and growth opportunity for the luxury brands that compete within its realm. With many luxury brands competing for over $225 billion (The Economist, 2009) in revenue each year it is easy to see how strategy plays an important role.
