Brandy@Internet First a disclaimer. Our parent company manages a web site since 1996, www.swfrance.com and www.cognacnet.com. Its content is information only. In the B2C,Business-to-Consumer, category by far the most successful site is www.calvados.de which averages about 300 Cognac sales per month. Originally targeted at the German market it begins to sell in the EC countries as well. It has an outstanding monthly newsletter. Among others worth noting are the UK based site cognac-co.com, le-cognac.com which has achieved an average of US$1000 per order, cognacweb.com has a miniscule e-commerce and la-cognatheque.com which is operated by owner of a Cognac shop in Cognac of the same name. Many wine sites begin to offer Cognac as well. In the B2B, Business-to-Business, category, there are basically no Cognac market place although pro-wine.com and wine4trade.com have registered occasional offers. Big fashionable name sites like ducasseonline.com offer one or two Cognac brands as well. Some Cognac producers attempt to sell their products off their sites like guerbe.fr. continues Brandy@Internet page 11 . |
Profile
A Gascon in Cognac, a surprising rendez-vous with Philippe Gelas Finding Philippe Gelas working for the biggest
distillery in Grande Champagne - Boinaud in Angeac Champagne - is something of a surprise
for those who know of his family connection with their venerable Armagnac house in Vic
Fezensac. Fresh, if foreign, blood is always welcomed
and Boinaud chose well. Simon Palmer |
