During her visit to Georgia, the head of the American marketing company "Marq Energie Consulting" also met with Georgian producers and introduced the conjuncture of the United States wine market. Julie Peterson's presentation will help Georgian producers to develop an export strategy to the US market.

Measures taken by the National Wine Agency in recent years have helped increase the awareness of Georgian wine in the United States, which has reflected in certain results. For the past 6 years, the annual growth of exports has been recorded, and in 2020, the export of wine from Georgia to the United States has reached an unprecedented amount - 1 million bottles. Growing dynamics is maintained this year as well," - said Levan Mekhuzla.
