The company plans to expand Wine and Spirits across U.S. wholesale, international markets, and direct-to-consumer channels, including hospitality, using its global omnichannel capabilities. It says marketing, sales, and distribution are managed primarily on a geographic basis to leverage leading market positions. In the U.S., Beer and Wine and Spirits generally use separate distribution networks. Second-quarter Wine and Spirits shipment growth benefited from strategic pricing actions on select brands in the U.S. wholesale channel.
