Global Issues: Problems, Opportunities, Drivers
• Global supply-demand balance & system inertia– Defining, analysing and interpretation of statistics– Modelling, scenario analysis and projection?– Emerging (BRIC) and adjusting producer/consumers
• Structure of distribution and retail sector – Recent and ongoing consolidation, limits to SKUs– Alternative access, promotion & servicing pathways?
• Political and social pressures on consumption, pricing, margins, growth– Social licence; health/wellbeing, environment– Sponsorship and tacit promotion– Competition for natural resources and infrastructure
National/Regional Issues : Problems, Opportunities, Drivers
• Industry investor and competitor behaviour– Industry planning, communication and adoption– Numbers, sector focus, current/future viability,
“adjustment”• Policy settings
– Regulation, Taxation etc– Product and industry legitimacy
• Regionality Branding cf/vs Proprietary Brand development– Scale and allocation of investments and by whom?– Legitimacy and credibility of regionality– Risk; climate change and variability
Consequences
• Industry Legitimacy– Direct and indirect implications for industry’s “Licence
to Operate”• Accessibility, reliability and cost of resource
access-land, water, energy, infrastructure----• Accountability
– Development and implementation of BMP+, diverse/confusing/competing certification schemes
– Alignment with regional landscape environmental targets, social objectives-community health and wellbeing
– Role of a “Sustainability Performance Index”– Public audit and reporting; social/community dividend
and environmental impacts etc
Proprietary : Problems, Opportunities, Drivers
• Regionality Branding c.f. Proprietary Brand development– Risk and exposure to weakest colleague– Reliable and valued differentiation-especially with
“Climate Change”?• Consolidation, Innovation and Diversification
– Product; classic vs novel and FMCG approaches– Marketing– Sales and distribution
• Optimising business structures and scale– “Whole of business” modelling, planning and belief– Implementation and monitoring– Adaptation and resilience
For Industry and its Businesses• Improved sector and business analysis
interpretation and communication• Deeper consideration of
– Business positioning and potential– Entrepreneurial opportunity and risk management
• Adoption of more creative approaches in– R&D for contribution to design and delivery– Business planning and execution-action– Communications and Marketing– Adaptability and resilience
Vitivinicultural c.f. Human Factors
• What is the relative plasticity, adaptability and resilience of – The vitivinicultural system– The human operator– Societal institutions– Our markets
• The media• Customers and• Consumers?
Business Performance
• Heightened production and compliance costs
• Greater public accountability measures• Issues of genuine demand/supply balance• Impacts of supply chain consolidation and
balance in market power; novel approaches to marketing and distribution?
• Profitability; individual and regionally– Capacity for reinvestment, innovation and
development
Accountability, information, education and communication
• The public perception and product image of wine has been reinforced by regulatory, industry protocol and promotional assurances of origin, quality, integrity and sustainability communicated to the public, customers and consumers; especially evident with “terroir” based propositions (+organic---?)
• Engagement with the public regarding emerging pressures and industry adaptations must be well planned and managed in order to preserve and enhance these attributes
Optimal adaptation to climate, environment & social pressures needs; • Development of regionally relevant and realistic
potential scenarios • Preemptive and active balance of management,
technical and regulatory innovations to allow effective functioning of the sector, rather than – a belated uncoordinated recuperative action.
• Strategic investment in technical, social and economic R&D, information and communication
• Support and promotion by very well informed leaders and executive management within the public and commercial sector
Implementation of Mitigation/Adaption Strategies
• Clear leadership will be required from industry and government in making a firm commitment to; – Transparent and rigorous analysis of the national and
regional impacts of change (climate, social etc) in its diverse manifestations---technical, environmental, social and economic
– Communication of alternative scenarios and candidate responses is made
– Appropriate adaptation of production and marketing processes
– Well considered legal and regulatory change recognising a need for more adaptable management
And finally-Should the wine industry become more adventurous?
• In its engagement with customers and consumers?
•Different varieties•Different wine styles•Alternative representation of regionality•Different lifestyle and customer/consumer
needs-alternative grape based products• Adapting industry organisation; variety,
viticultural and oenological techniques; packaging and promotion to emerging biophysical and social climates?
Some Stimuli• Creative thinking; Edward de Bono
