Enjoy Wine and Spirits

What Enjoy Wine and Spirits does

Enjoy Wine & Spirits AB is a Stockholm-based importer and distributor of international wines and spirits, founded in 1992 and operating as a subsidiary of the Gruppo Di Luca corporate group. The company sources wines and beverages from producers across France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Austria, the USA, Australia, Portugal, South Africa, Hungary, and Lebanon, and sells them through two channels: consumer retail via the Swedish government-owned monopoly Systembolaget (where it is described as one of the oldest suppliers) and direct B2B sales to Sweden's restaurant and horeca sector via regional field sales representatives and a Key Account Manager for on-trade. Pricing spans budget SKUs around 65 SEK through premium selections near 299 SEK, with portfolio coverage of red, white, rosé, sparkling, spirits, cider, and non-alcoholic beverages.

The company's core technology is its portfolio curation and supply-chain management capability rather than a software platform; it maintains no API, mobile app, or disclosed proprietary tech stack, and its digital footprint centers on marketing content (an SEO/B2B site, newsletter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn) rather than transactional technology. Producer relationship quality is core to the offering, with long-term representation of premium wineries such as Au Bon Climat, Cigliuti, La Spinetta, Fontanafredda, Baron de Ley, and Paolo Scavino, alongside editorial brand assets including the "Dryckesskolan" (Beverage School), the "Vin för Rookies" podcast hosted by Johan Eklöf, and the "Wine & Friends" magazine.

Revenue mechanics are straightforward distribution margins on imported wines, with two demand funnels: Sys­tembolaget-driven consumer pull (where assortment selection and supplier reputation drive listings and shelf presence) and horeca-driven sell-in (where regional sales reps secure on-trade listings and recurring reorders). The 29-person organization runs a sales-led go-to-market supplemented by event-driven educational marketing (tastings, producer visits, podcast stories), and it has begun extending into the alcohol-free segment via Oddbird and into sustainability positioning via the "Bottled With Care" initiative in partnership with FTI. Owner's representative Wilhelm Schultz is listed as Owner & Portfolio Manager Wine, with Peter Kokovic as CEO and Maria Tillander as CFO.
