Imported wine agency materials generally consist of two parts: company qualifications and product-related documents.
For company qualifications, first you need a valid business license with business scope covering alcohol sales. Next is the food operation permit, essential for food sales including imported wine. Also provide legal representative ID.
For product-related documents, prepare detailed introductions of imported wines, like brand story, winery info, grape varieties, production techniques, etc., helping clients better understand products. Bilingual label samples must comply with China's food labeling standards, including wine name, ingredients, alcohol content, net volume, etc. Additionally, supplier-provided certificates of origin and hygiene are crucial, proving legal sourcing and hygiene compliance.
Only with these materials prepared can imported wine agency proceed smoothly.
