MIAMI, FL / November 07, 2024 / Gaucho Group Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:VINO), a company that includes a growing collection of e-commerce platforms with a concentration on fine wines, luxury real estate, and leather goods and accessories (the “Company” or “Gaucho Holdings”), today announced a significant milestone in its wine sales performance. For the year to date in 2024, the Company’s sales have increased by 185% compared to the same period in 2023, coupled with an impressive 40% increase in the average sales price per bottle.

 

This growth in both volume and pricing is the result of strategic initiatives by the Company’s wine brand, Algodon Fine Wines, aimed at refining its distribution tactics and enhancing brand positioning within the market. The increased average sales price reflects the successful enhancement of the perceived value of Algodon’s wine products, driven by quality improvements and premium branding efforts.

 

These results mark the infancy stages of a new strategic push in the Company’s ecommerce direct-to-consumer (DTC) channels in Argentina, and supported by traditional importer, distribution networks, and retail models in the United States. This phase comes after substantial investments in production capacity and the expansion of the Company’s winery in San Rafeal, Mendoza, Argentina. Recent enhancements include new French oak barrels, additional stainless-steel tanks, and a state-of-the-art bottling and labeling machine. These upgrades are critical to Algodon’s strategy to manage increased production while maintaining the high-quality standards for which its wines are known.

 

 

Scott Mathis, CEO and Founder of Gaucho Group Holdings, Inc., commented on the achievements, stating, “The exceptional growth in both sales volume and pricing is a testament to our team’s hard work and the strategic direction we have implemented. Our ability to significantly increase our average sales price while simultaneously growing sales volume demonstrates the strength of our brand and the success of our premiumization strategy. We remain committed to leveraging our core business pillars to further enhance our operational success and market footprint.”

 

Gaucho Holdings is confident that its ongoing strategic efforts, combined with the recent operational upgrades to its winery, will continue to drive growth and improve the Company’s overall valuation.
