Majestic Wine Position Themselves As Leading Party Drinks Provider
24 July 2009
As the summer season finally gets under way, Majestic Wine, the UK’s biggest and best retailer of wine by the mixed case, are positioning themselves as one of the leading providers of party wine, making their stores an essential point of call of those organising a summer soiree or garden party.
Offering a huge range of services, to alleviate the stress of party planning, Majestic Wine, the specialist wine merchants, offer not only the chance to purchase wine , Champagne and spirits in bulk, but they are also in a position to offer free chiller bins and free glass loan hire.
Emma Pook, Online Commercial Manager for Majestic, said, “If you are organising a garden party this season, Majestic are able to help with both the organisation and implementation with our comprehensive list of services. If you have a lot of party drinks to chill, then our chiller bins could be the answer.
“These sturdy plastic bins can be filled with a mixture of ice and water to rapidly and cheaply cool large numbers of bottles at once, and what’s more, they are available to hire for free - all we ask for is a £15 deposit which you get back when you return the bin to us.”
Taking convenience to another level, the team at Majestic will even deliver the drinks and the chiller bin to you within an hour or two of your first guests arriving, providing that a few days notice is given, making sure that your drinks are kept ice cold and ready to serve on demand.
If you have a seasonal party or function planned, then Majestic can even help by providing you with all of the wine glasses, champagne flutes, hi-ball tumblers and pint glasses you will need, and deliver them free with your wine order, as part of their free glass loan service. All that they ask is that a deposit is paid in advance, to cover the glasses and the box they come in, and that the glasses are returned to them clean and ready for re-use.
Miss Pook added, “Our revolutionary glass loan service is one of our most popular party services here at Majestic and it is not hard to see why. Buying glasses specifically for a party or event can be expensive, and no one wants to risk damaging their best glass ware. In addition to this unique service, our sale or returns policy is also widely praised.”
Removing the uncertainty involved with estimating how many bottles of wine , Champagne or spirits to purchase for a large event, Majestic now offer a sale or return policy, allowing party planners nationwide to return any bottles to them, providing that they have not been opened and are in pristine condition and that the service is arranged at the time or purchase.
Miss Pook added, “We have been expanding our range of parties services at Majestic for a number of years, and we can we even provide a range of products and services aimed at those with a smaller budget. Customers who are keen on cutting their costs have access to a range of wines from as little £3.79, on bulk orders, and for those really seeking the best deal, our cross channel service may be of interest.”
Aimed at those placing larger orders, for weddings or parties, the cross-Channel service offered by Majestic in France provides customers keen on reducing their costs, with a free ferry crossing with SeaFrance on all pre-orders over £300 or alternatively, a £30 discount on travel expenses for those opting to travel on the Eurotunnel or with another ferry provider, offering yet another way of throwing a full scale bash without the added expense.
