Why Borvin Beverage Franchise Corporation?
A few reasons to own a BBFC franchise:
- The Wine Institute reports that in 2006, US wine retailers sold over 301,000,000 cases for a retail value of $27.8 Billion dollars! This is a 100% increase from 1996.
- There are nearly 500,000 wine retailers in the US market.
- US wine sales have grown for 13 consecutive years. Overall, wine sales have the highest growth compared to beer and spirits.
- If an additional 1% of the US population began to consume wine, that would equate to 3 million new wine consumers.
- Wine is a highly respected beverage that has been enjoyed over thousands of years. Scientific studies regard moderate wine consumption as beneficial to health and longevity.
- Many states are C.O.D. for alcohol deliveries (such as in Virginia), relieving the wholesale distributor of burdensome and costly collection efforts.
- A BBFC franchise is a very reasonable investment for a large potential business.
- Warehouse storage is one of the cheapest facilities (per square foot) required to enter large scale business. No expensive building image is required or necessary for success.
- Wholesale distribution allows the franchisee to go out and sell to customers instead of being tied to a retail location that must attract customers.
- The BBFC concept is designed for growth and expansion into different product lines.
- Once your products are in a retail establishment it is easy to add additional product lines.
- Wine is an easy product to sell because it involves all of the senses. Selling the product entails viewing the color, smelling the bouquet and tasting its quality.
- Wine is a high profit margin item for retailers and is essential for restaurants. It is not uncommon for restaurants to mark up their wine 200-400%.
