The Chinese wine market is on the rise, presenting new export opportunities for Australian wineries eager to re-establish their position on the market. Recent developments, including the lifting of tariffs on Australian wine imports, have opened the way for a resurgence in trade.
As the Asian market evolves, Hong Kong stands out as an interesting hub for Australian wineries. With its strategic location, it provides unequalled access to local consumers and the wider Asian market, including growing demand in countries like Thailand, Vietnam, Japan, or Singapore.
In the coming years, the Australian wine sector is set to flourish, driven by increased GDP resulting in higher disposable incomes. Consumers are increasingly valuing quality over quantity, leading to a projected rise in average purchasing prices for wines.
