Who is behind ExportVins

Simon Lemonnier, founder of ExportVins.

I have spent seven years in wine, including two as sales manager for a Canadian importer, one year in Toronto and one in Montreal. I saw from the inside how a buyer chooses the estates they work with.

In October 2021, I founded ExportVins to put that perspective at the service of producers. Five years later, more than 120 estates have trusted me with their export prospecting.

The model

Why we are paid on performance.

Many estates have already paid for an export service without concrete results. With ExportVins, you only pay for importers who have met our four qualification criteria: presentation approved, export prices confirmed, cuvées selected, tasting accepted.

This model forces us to contact only importers who are a good fit for your estate, and to tell you frankly when a market or a positioning does not seem realistic to us.

How I work

One single contact, from the first call to the report.

I run every mission myself: the discovery call, prospecting, qualification and the video presentation of the report. You always know who you are talking to.

The estates we have supported are listed on the case studies page, with the markets they opened.
