The International Bulk Wine & Spirits Show (IBWSS) is set to return to San Francisco on July 29–30, 2025, with a timely and forward-thinking theme:

“The New Economics of Wine & Spirits: Supply Chains, Tariffs, Consumer Shifts.”

With tariffs being renegotiated, supply chain vulnerabilities persisting, and consumer preferences evolving rapidly, the show aims to equip industry professionals with the tools and insights they need to adapt and thrive.

As global trade dynamics shift, the IBWSS 2025 2-day conference will spotlight the rising importance of bulk wine, bulk spirits, private label programs, and contract bottling as strategic levers for survival and growth in a volatile market.

There will be more than 20 speakers over 2 days and more than 16 talks that will focus on the new theme.

Why This Theme Matters Now

The global wine and spirits industry is undergoing a major reset. From sourcing and pricing to branding and distribution, traditional models are being re-evaluated. Bulk supply and contract production are no longer just cost-saving options—they are now core pillars of agility, scalability, and competitiveness.

- Tariff volatility is reshaping how and where products are sourced.
- Supply chain disruptions continue to impact bottling, freight, and distribution.
- Consumer drinking habits are shifting—especially among younger generations.
- Private label growth is exploding as retailers seek more control, margin, and customization.
