Private wine collector storage leader in USA selects Wine Owners

Wine Owners, the fast-growing fine wine collection management software and peer-to-peer trading exchange, has today announced a new implementation of its white labelled wine management platform (WMP) at Nest Egg Wine Collections, Western Carriers Inc.’s state-of-the -art storage facility for their sophisticated wine collector business.

The new system interfaces with all warehouse operations -- inbounding, ordering and inventory reporting -- and offers a sophisticated set of wine-cellar management tools, linked to a database with key information on over 280,000 wines.

Joel Rubins, Vice President of Private Collector Services at Western Carriers, explained the reason for selecting Wine Owners to upgrade their storage offering in this area:

“Our wine collector clients immediately fell in love with the look and feel of our new inventory system. I have seen a 50% increase of clients accessing their accounts via our new Nest Egg portal, and this has provided me with a great opportunity to connect with our clients.

The Wine Owners team rose to the challenge and provided insightful guidance and expertise helped shape the programming”.
