China is turning into one of the world’s largest, most lucrative food and beverage markets. Especially wine is in demand and has become fashionable as a symbol of social status. This trend is very likely to continue as wine consumption is closely related to income and China’s emerging middle class offers tremendous potential. The market’s healthy value growth will further encourage newcomers from outside China. But how can a market entrance be successfully managed and what are the main challenges when bringing wine to China? This book is an insiders’ guide to efficiently planning a market entry by taking a thorough look at the wine market of China. It surveys the typical behavior of the Chinese wine consumer and examines the relevant factors for a successful market entry. Distribution channels (off- and online), pricing models and marketing activities are scrutinized. Further, the reader gets insights into the challenges of this dynamic market, such as fierce domestic and foreign competition, policies and regulations as well as entry barriers. The thirst for wine prevails, and this book will leverage your momentum.

This volume explores the policy dynamics, economic commitments and social impacts of the fast evolving Sino-LAC relations. China’s engagement with Latin America and the Caribbean has entered into an era of strategic transition. While China is committed to strengthening its economic and political ties with Latin America and the Caribbean, Latin America as a bloc is enthusiastically echoing China’s endeavor by diverting their focus toward the other side of the ocean. The transitional aspect of China-LAC ties is phenomenal, and is manifested not only in the accelerating momentum of trade, investment, and loan but also in the China-CELAC Forum mechanism that maps out an institutional framework for decades beyond. While Latin America is redefined as an emerging priority to the leadership in Beijing, what are the responses from Latin America and the United States? In this sense, experts from four continents provide local answers to this global question.

Akademische Arbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich BWL - Offline-Marketing und Online-Marketing, Note: 1,3, Hochschule für Wirtschaft und Recht Berlin, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: China is turning into one of the world’s largest, most lucrative food and beverage markets. With a growing middle class, the demand for premium lifestyle products is constantly increasing. A new generation of consumers, typically located in urban areas, is emerging, with more disposable income and a greater awareness and willingness to pay for high quality, often imported products – including wine. Wine has become “fashionable” as a symbol of social status and this trend is likely to continue. Further, the health benefits associated with red wine in particular, have convinced some consumers to switch from traditional Chinese alcoholic beverages to grape wine. Although China traditionally is a rice-wine-consuming country and unlike in many Western countries, grape wine is considered a luxury product, the grape wine market has grown rapidly since its emergence in the mid 1990s, with still wine being the most lucrative. According to a recent survey, in 2009 the Chinese wine market generated total revenues of US$ 7,2 billion which constitutes a compound annual growth rate of 5,3% for the period from 2005 to 2009 . As wine consumption in China is closely related to income, there is no end in sight to this positive trend.

Despite the rapid growth of China’s wine industry, many American wine companies should not consider trying to enter the market. U.S. wine shares of the Chinese wine market have struggled and declined in the last year, due to competition, lack of knowledge of American wines, and the rapid growth of the American wine market itself. However, American wine companies can still gain much from doing more business in China's wine industry if they are willing to take on the costs and risks of doing so. This paper aims to understand why American wines have struggled to gain greater success in China’s wine market, and to find ways to overcome these issues. To do this, it analyses the past and current situation of the Chinese wine market; discuss American wine’s top competitors in the market and how they find success; provides an explanation of who should be American wine companies’ target consumer; describes China’s wine market distribution channels; and makes some suggestions on how American wine can expand marketing and sales in China's wine industry. The reader of this thesis will have a better understanding of the current wine market in China and whether or not the market offers any opportunities to them.

Project Report from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1, , language: English, abstract: Hardys is a very successful and well established Australian wine brand with a long history and a wide range of different products including red and white grape wine as well as sparkling and sweet wines. Like many successful wine producers, Hardys plans to enter the Chinese wine market which has shown outstanding growth rates over the last years due to the Chinese perception of 8especially red) wine as elegant, exclusive, healthy and a symbol of high class, education, manners and upper life style. The Chinese market with its gigantic consumer potential is forecasted to quickly develop into one of the world’s largest markets for imported wines from all around the world. Currently French imported wine is the largest competition on this market, followed by already successfully introduced other Australian brands (making Australia the second largest country of origin of imported wine in China). In addition there is a growing and constantly improving competition from domestic wines. Research and analysis based positioning elements for Hardys (Shiraz) in China will be the ‘sweet’ taste, the ‘Australian’ origin and a focus on information to educate the consumers to ‘smart’ buyers of Hardys products. Selected customer segments provide a promising market potential in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou which builds the geographically most relevant market for imported wine in China. Through a themed yearly focus in accordance with Hardys positioning strategy, consumers’ interest will be raised, their knowledge will be improved and with a variety of communication activities they will be turned into potential repeat buyers. Communication channels therefore will be a combination of classical print media (selected magazines) as well as a strong online presence as more and more wine-related product research is done online. In accordance with the selected target segment’s life style and consumption habits, smart phone optimized content and access to information will play another crucial role in Hardys’ brand communication. Pricing follows Chinese consumers’ habits, expectations and perceptions as well as researched recent market trends and a strategic aspect of positioning Hardys as a ‘smart’ choice with higher value for money compared to already established but often overpriced French brands.
