New research just released by Wine Business Solutions shows that Matthew Clark grew its share of wine listings last year to over 17%.

The research shows that Matthew Clark is the clear leader in all regions of the UK except Northern Ireland.

WBS Principal, Peter McAtamney, says that:

 “It is Matthew Clark’s ability to cover all major On-Premise opportunities that makes them compelling as a partner.

The other business cutting a swathe through the UK On-Premise is Majestic’s Wholesale arm. From virtually a standing start 12 months ago, Majestic now controls 5% of all listings in the UK. Customers clearly prefer their model to most of the established distributors’.
Spain, Italy and Argentina have been the best performing countries in the UK On-Premise in the last 12 months.

The styles that UK restaurants are preferring are clearly changing and that is clearly favouring Spain and Italy in particular”.
