WIRWINZER We are constantly scanning the market in order to spot the most exciting busi- ness models in the wine trade early on and acquire them for the Hawesko Group. Throughout 2016 we studied and assessed a large number of con- cepts, and were so impressed with WirWinzer that we secured a 66% stake in this successful online marketplace. The strategy behind the move: on the one hand we have added 10,000 Ger- man wines to our range – a sensible expansion and a brilliant market op- portunity. On the other hand the tech- nological aspect of the deal is very interesting: WirWinzer is a digital marketplace where our customers can order wine directly from the winemaker, bypassing all the intermediaries. Foun- der and Managing Director Sebastian Zellner and his team remain on board, and will continue to run the company with a high degree of autonomy. The areas that o er synergies are our shared services, e.g. for online marketing and IT. „We’re really delighted that the Hawesko Group has got involved and that it o ers a brilliant, dynamic opportunity for us to develop our innovative business model.“ – Sebastian Zellner, Founder More information about Wir Winzer.
