High Praise

It’s great when your customers give you high praise. There are a number of testimonials on our new website, but one that we’re really proud of comes from Adrian Bridge, CEO of The Fladgate Partnership:

“We have been working with Oomiji for a number of years and we have found that we have been able to gain valuable insight into our American customers in a way that has created a positive impact to our business; returning a very high return on investment for what we do.  In addition, we have been able to convey many important messages through our Oomiji database that have boosted the number of visitors to our winery in Portugal and, I believe, helped to create a stronger emotional link between our brand and our customers.  In other words, this is an investment that we have made that will continue to pay dividends into the future.”

If you don’t know the Fladgate Partnership, you should. Not only are they a model in luxury business development, diversification and innovation, but they are also great corporate citizens sponsoring The Porto Protocol, a major environmental initiative that aims to mitigate the impact of climate change on the wine industry.

Fladgate owns three well-known port wine brands – Taylor’s, Fonseca and Croft. They have recently acquired two producers of still table wines, Ideal Drinks and Quinta do Portal. They own hotels in Porto, the Douro Valley and Lisbon and in 2020 create a new cultural district in Vila Nova de Gaia across the Douro River from Porto. It has brought new museums, restaurants and entertainment venues to the Porto area.

We have a great partnership with them and their importer, Kobrand. We love working with them and helping them build their relationships and business with American wine consumers.
