Wine Bar and Way

shop: Many of my clients had suggested that a wine bar or shop would be a great way to showcase the wines and connect the winemakers to the customers, according to The Guardian. So, in May 2014, I looked into crowdfunding and felt that this would be the best way to raise some cash. I d been importing wines directly from boutique vineyards for five years selling them to private clients and hosting tastings for corporates. A few spreadsheets later, I d decided that 500,000 was the amount required to cover the premium for the site, the first six months rent and other running costs, with a big chunk left over for marketing and potentially a second site soon after. The real challenge, and one I hadn t considered would be a problem at all, was to find a site. However, of all the challenges I ve faced in business, funding was the easiest to overcome.
