Higher customer Engagement

Members are more vested in their relationship to the club – which in turn correlates to membership renewal rates. For some storing their own wines in the club is fundamental to the relationship and a strongly perceived value. For others the ‘iPad’ electronic wine list with its search capability through a list of thousands of wines, with a depth of associated educational/ informative content, creates a uniquely empowering member experience.

Secure, trusted member wine storage

The ability to store members’ wines in the Club is a valuable service. With 3,500 members the club required a cellar management platform that could handle multiple ownership of wine in different sub-locations in order to effectively manage members wines with the necessary levels of security, traceability, and condition recording required. There is no known EPOS, Club Membership or On-trade system providing this functionality.

Peer-to-peer exchange

Club members are able to participate in a peer to peer exchange, making it easy to buy and sell between each other, as well as the wider Wine Owners exchange community (all of whom have been preapproved for trading rights in an assured market where counter-party security is paramount. All settlement and logistics activities are carried out on behalf of the Club by Wine Owners’ specialist staff.

Streamlined processes

67 Pall Mall offers their clients the UK’s biggest wine selection with over 30,000 bottles on-site.

Traceability and fast retrieval of wines from the cellar is the most fundamental part of the club’s operation. We have implemented streamlined processes between sommelier and cellar teams which eliminate miss picks to and delivers ordered wine to members immediately following a request.

First of its kind

67 Pall Mall was a ground-breaking idea that demanded fresh thinking and world-class inventorying. The 17,000 sq ft building now boasts 30,000 bottles of wine. It is home to 3,500 members, 18 sommeliers, the biggest wine list in the UK and 800 wines by the glass — the most in the world.
