        The D2C Wine & Spirits Market is Ripe for the Harvest

        The year 2020 was a game-changer for the wine and spirits industry. Direct to consumer commerce, something that used to be extremely difficult (or illegal) to do, suddenly became an “essential business” activity. Curbside pickup and local delivery became a lifeline to wine and spirits brands as digitally-native consumers started finding their favorite vintages online vs heading to their local retail store. Over 2/3 of digital native consumers made their first online alcohol purchase during the pandemic helping to drive the US alcohol ecommerce market value up almost 80% since 2019.   

        The pandemic normalized wine and spirits home delivery. Now consumers expect the same level of customer experience when they are shopping for wine as when they are shopping for any other item online.  

        With wine now being legal to ship to almost every state, retailers must rethink their retail strategy and place more of an emphasis on direct-to-consumer channels. But to be successful at direct-to-consumer commerce, brands need the right technology in place to create those coveted customer experiences.  

        That’s where we come in.

        Why an OMS is Critical for Wine & Spirits Brands

        While “normalized”, selling wine and spirits directly to the consumer has a lot of complexities, with compliance being the main headache for retailers. What are the laws for each state? Is curbside and local delivery an option? That’s why it’s imperative for wine and spirits brands to have a built-for-purpose order management system that can automate those important, but time-consuming processes.  

        At Deck Commerce, order management isn’t just something we do, it’s all we do. 

        We’ve been helping brands with direct-to-consumer commerce for over 20 years. That experience taught us what order management capabilities brands need for success—and turn every customer into their best customer.
