WTN Services is again proud to participate in Wine 2.0 in New York. We are equally happy that many of our clients have made the trek to participate. At this event you will see such great brands as Heritage Link Wines, Porter Family, Hahn, Rodney Strong and others, pouring great wines, for the New York market. WTN Services is proud to have a strong partnership with a diverse group of brands that truely represent the great diversity of the wine industry represented at this key event in New York.

Additionally WTN Services will be introducing the soft launch of our business to business wine platform for the retail segment of limited products to a very targeted list of states. While others speak of their concepts of direct to trade, we are quietly committed to building a secondary distribution channel taking advantage of key wholesale partners that have a passion for strategic partnership that will drive sales to our clients in a very targeted fashion that creates a longer term win for all parties. Consistent with our core values is to create a win for all parties -the wineries, the secondary wholesale channel, the retailers with additional access points as main reason for all of our being- the consumer.

Innovation and investment now and over the long-run is our commitment to growing a variety of sales opportunities for our clients.

We are thrilled with the innovative launches bringing a portion of our portfolio of fulfillment partner brands and secondary brands of wine into new markets we have introduced over the last 30 days…
