Today, we are responsible for the distribution of all promotional material and other information relating to ÖSTERREICH Wein Marketing GmbH (ÖWM). Other services we provide for our parent company include the logistics for events organised by ÖWM, both nationally and international. Furthermore, our cash-and-carry market in Korneuburg serves as the access point for sample bottles used for various wine-tastings organised by well-known wine magazines. ÖWI Handels-GmbH also plays an important role in the organisation of SALON ÖSTERREICH WEIN, particularly in the field of logistics. It is our aim to offer the important products available from our range to Austrian vintners, caterers, restaurant owners and the market in general, at fair prices. These prices are the result of a very reasonable calculation of costs.
