Every year, The Wine Merchant conducts a survey that takes the temperature of the independent trade. We think it’s the biggest and most comprehensive study of its kind.

If you’re an independent wine merchant, with physical retail premises, we’d love you to take part. The survey will take five to 10 minutes of your time.

All responses are treated in confidence, but collectively the data we get helps us build up a really accurate picture of the independent trade and how it’s performing. It also gives you the chance to comment on the service you get from suppliers and couriers, and to give your verdict on innovations like dispense devices and draught wine, and the move towards offering craft beer and food and on the premises.

This year’s survey is being run in partnership with Enotria, which is offering some goodies to randomly-selected respondents. Full details will follow.
