Dialogue
D: To sum up our discussion, the pandemic has hit smaller wineries the harvest. We need to sell more to support them and get them into a good rhythm. We've also established that our appeal as a wine merchant is not resonating with those below the age of 45, and that hotels and restaurants are looking to our competitors to supply them with interesting, everyday wines.
E: Thank you. Listening to all of your input—and Lisa's more objective viewpoint—I have some ideas.
R: I'm all ears.
E: So, if we can work with more up-and-coming wineries, perhaps from different countries, we can offer variety. Adding to this, if we can create some stylish spirits or even sell sake under a private WCS brand, we can engage a younger audience.
L: That's a great ideas. We can get more people familiar with the WCS brand.
