The agency fees for imported red wines in Ningbo do not have a fixed standard and are affected by various factors. First of all, it is the brand influence. The agency fees for well-known red wine brands are often higher. Secondly, it is the agency level. For example, the fees for a regional general agent will be higher than those for ordinary distributors.
Generally speaking, if you choose an agency platform like Zhongshitong, the basic agency fees may be around 50,000 - 100,000 yuan, which includes brand authorization, certain market promotion support, etc. Meanwhile, the cost of the first batch of purchases is also a large expense, about 100,000 - 300,000 yuan, depending on the types and quantities of the selected red wines. In addition, operating costs such as store rental and staff salaries also need to be considered, and about 50,000 - 200,000 yuan may be needed for the early preparation. Overall, about 200,000 - 600,000 yuan may need to be prepared in the early stage.
Of course, the specific fees still need to be determined through detailed communication with the agency platform.
