Geography

Australia — Adelaide-headquartered, with national retail and export-market coverage

Data Coverage

Actowiz Solutions delivered wine market intelligence for an Adelaide-based winery group — aggregating retail pricing, competitor wines, ratings, and export-market data across Australian retailers and key international markets to support pricing and distribution strategy.

Client Overview

The client is an Adelaide-headquartered winery group producing premium wines from South Australian regions including the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, and Adelaide Hills. With wine being intensely competitive — and Australian wine major in both domestic retail and exports — real-time market intelligence was business-critical.

Australian wine retail is dominated by major liquor retailers (Dan Murphy's, BWS, Liquorland, First Choice), with significant export volumes to key international markets.

Business Challenges

Multi-Retailer Pricing Complexity

Wine pricing across Dan Murphy's, BWS, Liquorland, and First Choice — plus frequent specials — required systematic tracking.

Competitor Wine Tracking

Competing wineries' pricing, ratings, and positioning needed continuous monitoring across retailers.

Ratings & Reviews Across Sources

Wine ratings from critics, retailers, and review platforms shaped consumer demand.

Export-Market Intelligence

Understanding how the client's wines were priced and positioned in export markets (UK, US, China, Singapore) was essential.

Project Objectives

The client partnered with Actowiz Solutions to:

  • Track wine pricing across major Australian liquor retailers

  • Monitor competitor wines — pricing, ratings, positioning

  • Aggregate wine ratings and reviews across sources

  • Capture export-market pricing and positioning

  • Deliver intelligence to the winery's pricing and distribution teams
