The South African wine industry is at a tipping point, with many wine businesses, especially smaller companies and those under black ownership, facing potential closures in the next three to 12 months due to the recurring and now fifth domestic wine sales restrictions.

“Many wine businesses are at the edge of a cliff and the livelihoods of thousands of employees are being endangered in the process. South Africa is the only country in which liquor sales have been banned with no financial assistance from national government, despite repeated requests from the wine industry. Instead, government chooses to close our industry without reliance on empirical evidence to back their decisions and seem apathetic towards its citizens’ plight for survival,” he said.

“The Western Cape department of agriculture need to be commended in heeding the call and for funding two initiatives, namely a R12m Wine Tourism Worker Support Stipend and a R13.5m Producer and Brand Owner Protection Support Grant,” Basson continued.

Wine industry suffering: studyVinpro's survey says 58-percent of respondents indicated that their businesses would have to make drastic changes to overcome the impact of current restrictions. At the very least, they could've allowed wine sales from major retail outlets and direct sales from manufacturers but no that also requires common sense and logic which are none existent!
