1. Introduction
International competition on the wine market is characterized by a considerable disparity of strategies used by the different producers and wine-producing regions around the world.
The objective of this report is to provide an understanding of the competition mechanisms between countries which are traditionally exporters - the “Old World” producers, represented by European countries - and the so called “New World” countries which today compete for the supremacy of the traditional model of wine growing and production.
2. World wine producers
The distribution of the world wine producers is clearly detailed in the map below.
The Old World producers are located in Europe.
France, Italy and Spain are the main producers , followed by Portugal, Balkan states, UK and Germany. The European countries are still detaining a dominant position and they accounted for 70% of world production and consumption in 1999 (by data acquired by Euromonitor).
The New World producers are scattered around the world and are represented mainly by: Australia, Chile, United States, South Africa, New Zealand, Argentina and Canada.
3. World wine exports
The world wine export are still dominated by the Old World producers (see diagram below), with only three countries (France, Italy and Spain) which account for 60% of the world volumes exports in 2003.
Among the New World producers, the largest exports are coming from Australia, Chile and United States.
Another interesting characteristic is showed by the diagram below: the value of wine in exports market are increasing at greater rate than volume.

The Old World future ability to counter the ongoing threat from New World producers will depend on adopting an extensive marketing approach: size, branding, distribution channels and new mergers in order to benefit from the new global economy will all play a fundamental role in determining its success.

The first assumption is that the prices will increase 2% before inflation. The production level per ton of grapes and yield per acre will increase to 1992 levels due to the new market strategies. Sales are expected to grow 13% in 1995 after which estimate of 12%, 6%, and 8% for 1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively show growth while recognizing a shift toward white wines. The tax rate of 37% and inflation rate of 2% is factored in to the forecast. Therefore the prices per case for each category has 2% price growth as well as 2% inflation rate, total of 4% was reflected in arriving at the forecasted income statement. Maximum capacity of 110,000 was assumed in the forecast and does show that even with the increase levels of production will not hit this ceiling in the next 5 years. Depreciation was calculated on 5-year straight-line basis, while SGA was constant 14% of sales. The key drivers of this model are Gross margin on each of the 5 main product group, tax rate, inflation rate, real price growth level, interest rate, Inventory to COGS, Accounts Receivable to Sales ratio.
In recent years Anheuser-Busch has faced increased competition in the U.S. market. As a result of this increased competition the company has been looking overseas for growth and increased profits. The American market is a relatively stagnant market for Anheuser-Busch. There is very little growth in America and 94% of Anheuser-Busch’s sales occur inside America (Anheuser-Busch, 1999). Anheuser-Busch also has the resources to compete with any European brew in the European market. In many countries in Europe, Anheuser-Busch has begun to gain some market share and turn some profits. The Amer...
Another symptom of the decrease in wine sales is due to the lack of awareness among consumers about the types of wine available. In a restaurant setting consumers often shy away from ordering wine because they may feel uneducated about the types of wine offered or uncertain about which wine would best compliment their entrée. Restaurants have attempted to address this problem by educating their servers and providing progressive wine lists, but if a person doesn’t understand the difference between a blush wine and a full-bodied wine or if they feel it is a hassle to ask questions the end result is the same, no wine has been sold.
Significant market growth for quality branded products seemed possible in Diageo’s core markets, given the size of the informal market and the fact that formal beer and spirits consumption was substantially lower than in developed markets. For example, formal beer consumption per capita was 4 liters per year in Ethiopia, compared to 78 liters in the U.S. and 72 liters in the U.K. Ethiopian spirits consumption per capita was 0.4 liters per annum, compared to 7.4 liters in the U.S. and 5.4 liters in the U.K.
In order to achieve this objective Robert believed that he needed to build a Robert Mondavi brand in the premium wine market segment. This resulted in the initial pro¬duction of a limited quantity of premium wines using the best grapes, which brought the highest prices in the market and had the highest profit margins per bottle. How¬ever, he soon realized that this strategy, while establishing the brand, did not allow the company to generate enough cash flow to expand the business. In order to solve this problem Robert decided to produce less expensive wines that he could sell in higher volumes. He dedicated time and effort to finding the best vineyards in Napa Valley for the company's production of grapes. In addition, he signed long-term con¬tracts with growers in Napa Valley and worked closely with each grower to improve grape quality.

In 2013 French wine exports earned AUD $11.92 billion. France is known for high end wines bringing a huge economic return.
It’s easy to understand why Mondavi is primarily involved in the domestic market, with a small number of select partnerships and limited involvement with other wineries in different foreign markets. The company has always considered itself a family operation with an emphasis on high-end quality, and looked to work with similarly voiced companies that operated with similar motives. The partnerships are almost all in the ultra-premium and luxury premium segments, such as the highly prestigious Opus One offering, the minority interest in the Italy’s Ornellaia, and the Frescobaldi partnership that produced three more high-end wines in Montalcino, Italy. Amongst all their partnerships, only the Chilean joint venture produced any offering for the growing popular premium segment, with a Caliterra brand that sold 25% of their product in the United States.
In the 1976’s American wine, industry had forever changed. France has been the leader thought the winemaking world for centuries.

France has become one of the countries with the world’s largest economy. Their agricultural economy plays a huge part in most of their economy. A large portion of their agricultural economy comes mainly from their livestock such as cattle, hogs, poultry, and sheep. In addition, the country is a leading factor in the export of wheat, sugar beets, corn, barley, and potatoes. France is also one of the main producers of wine in the world. While most of the country’s economy lies in agriculture, the other part comes from their industrial economy. France’s leading industrial products consist of aircraft, machinery, automobiles, chemicals, textiles, metals, and foods. Moreover, their tourism service is a crucial part to their industry since the country has a huge tourist attraction and lots of sightseeing place. Because France has such an attraction for tourist, it makes a huge profit from lux...

When initially analyzing the Old World Wine Industry versus the New World Wine Industry, the differences are evident. Strong representations of this include factors such as size, production methods, brand equity, and production orientation. Through conducting an analysis using Porter’s Five Forces, one can clearly see the clear delineating factors between the Old and New World.
...ns while the Philippines produces about a half million tons. Both are mainly exported to Japan. In the tropics of Africa, close to nine million tons of bananas are grown. Larges quantities are usually shipped to Europe. In the American region, banana exports have decreased. From 1979-1980, there was an average of eighty percent but number decreased to seventy percent in the 2000s. During the same time South America was the only country progressing by increasing from twenty-eight percent to forty percent. Banana imports are moderately concentrated. The main import areas are Europe, United States, and Japan. Together, all three countries are accounted for at least seventy percent of the world’s import. Banana imports have drastically had an incredible rate of growth in the past few decades.
