WINE

Our national Wine Industry Business Development Unit combines the expertise of Markhams’ directors from around the country in order to help winemakers, grape growers and industry-allied business thrive in a competitive market place.

As a Markhams’ client, you will have full access to all of the information that we collect in the country’s only regional wine industry business confidence survey. This collective wisdom is a resource that many of our wine clients have used towards effective planning, ‘bench-marking’, and uncovering valuable insights towards the marketing of wine.

Our team of specialists can assist you in the following areas:

• Structuring advice for new and existing winery and vineyard businesses
• Business valuations
• Assistance with sale and purchase agreements
• Due diligence
• Amalgamations and mergers
• Annual and periodic accounts preparation
• Tax preparation and advice
• Budgeting and Cashflows

Once again Markhams is supporting New Zealand’s wine industry’s search for its best up-and-coming leaders. Regional winners from around the country will participate in a final on 28 August to be held in conjunction with the national Romeo Bragato conference in Blenheim. “We are thrilled to be able to contribute to this exciting industry that is such a strong economic contributor for Hawke’s Bay.  The future of any industry is in ensuring ongoing strong guidance and this competition recognises and encourages those individuals who have those leadership abilities,” says Hamish Pringle, Markhams Hawke’s Bay director.
