It delivered a strong sales increase during the past year, while general appearance and retail standards were highly praised. The range of drinks it offers is exciting, merchandising is pristine and staff knowledge is very high, while customer engagement is also exemplary. All in all, the people of Oxford and further afield are blessed to have such a brilliant drinks merchant in their region.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>OWC Managing Director Ted Sandbach said: &#8220;This is a real coup for us. We were nominated against three exceptionally strong businesses, all of whom we know and respect, and to win is a fantastic start to what we hope will be another great year for The Oxford Wine Company. The whole team should feel very proud.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The other nominees in our category were Vagabond Wines, Jeroboams, and Cambridge Wine Merchants.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_medium\"><\/div><div class=\"w-post-elm post_author vcard author color_link_inherit with_ava avapos_top\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oxfordwine.co.uk\/owc\/author\/owcemily\/\" class=\"fn\" aria-hidden=\"true\" tabindex=\"-1\"><div class=\"post-author-ava\" style=\"font-size:96px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"96\" height=\"96\" src=\"https:\/\/oxfordwine.co.uk\/owc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/116377708_608815716686001_1898708497719331632_n-96x96.jpg\" class=\"avatar avatar-96 photo\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oxfordwine.co.uk\/owc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/116377708_608815716686001_1898708497719331632_n-96x96.jpg 96w, https:\/\/oxfordwine.co.uk\/owc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/116377708_608815716686001_1898708497719331632_n-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oxfordwine.co.uk\/owc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/116377708_608815716686001_1898708497719331632_n-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/oxfordwine.co.uk\/owc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/116377708_608815716686001_1898708497719331632_n-350x350.jpg 350w, https:\/\/oxfordwine.co.uk\/owc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/116377708_608815716686001_1898708497719331632_n-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/oxfordwine.co.uk\/owc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/116377708_608815716686001_1898708497719331632_n-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/oxfordwine.co.uk\/owc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/116377708_608815716686001_1898708497719331632_n-24x24.jpg 24w, https:\/\/oxfordwine.co.uk\/owc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/116377708_608815716686001_1898708497719331632_n-48x48.jpg 48w, https:\/\/oxfordwine.co.uk\/owc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/116377708_608815716686001_1898708497719331632_n.jpg 640w, https:\/\/oxfordwine.co.uk\/owc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/116377708_608815716686001_1898708497719331632_n-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 96px) 100vw, 96px\" \/><\/div><\/a><div class=\"post-author-meta\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oxfordwine.co.uk\/owc\/author\/owcemily\/\" class=\"post-author-name fn\">Emily Silva<\/a><div class=\"post-author-info\">Emily is Head of Retail and Marketing at The Oxford Wine Company.
