About us
Who we are
We are a family-owned importer, distributor and wholesaler of award-winning wines that has been “noted for its collaborative and customer-focused approach, building towards long-term relationships rather than short-term gain”, Harpers Wine & Spirits
Founded in March 2017, the company brings together decades of expertise and proven track records in wine and distribution.
Operating as both an agent and a London-based wholesaler, we are proud to represent and distribute a diverse portfolio of wineries from around the world. From the outset, we have been guided by three clear principles:
1. To discover, import or distribute wines from highly respected, authentic producers that consistently over-deliver on quality, style and value.
2. To provide best-in-class service - from supply chain excellence to proactive sales support - building long-term, reliable and mutually beneficial partnerships.
3. To continually evolve our offering by listening closely to customer feedback, analysing market trends and adapting to the ever-changing demands of the wine industry.
Today, we remain committed to these founding values: combining deep-rooted industry knowledge with energy, flexibility and a relentless focus on helping our customers succeed.
Our Services
We take the time to understand your clientele, pricing structure and commercial objectives before recommending wines, helping you build a list that performs both creatively and commercially.
Our London-based warehousing and distribution network enables reliable same-day delivery, improving cash flow and allowing you to respond quickly and efficiently to customer demand.
We provide tailored staff training designed to build product knowledge, confidence and upselling skills, ensuring your team can engage customers and sell effectively.
Working closely with both suppliers and customers, we create opportunities that drive awareness, engagement and sales - from tastings and events to bespoke in-venue activations and producer collaborations.
We also offer a complete in-house wine list design and print service, creating clear, commercially effective wine lists that align with your venue, concept and brand identity.
Our Portfolio
We offer two dedicated portfolios tailored to the needs of different sectors: one for our on-trade customers across Greater London, featuring both our exclusive wineries and producers for whom we act as preferred distributors; and a second portfolio designed specifically for Independent Specialists and Regional Wholesalers.
Our portfolio sits at the heart of everything we do, combining generations of expertise with a shared commitment to quality, authenticity and craftsmanship. From historic family estates to pioneering modern wineries, each producer is carefully selected for their ability to express the unique character of their region through meticulous vineyard management and thoughtful winemaking.
Built on long-standing relationships and shared values, every winery we represent has been carefully chosen for its personality, provenance and consistency - helping us deliver wines that not only perform commercially, but also create memorable experiences and bring people together.
