WineWorld

What WineWorld does

WineWorld (legally WineWorld.CZ) is a privately held Czech Republic-based online wine retailer founded in 2011 and headquartered in Středokluky, operating from wineworld.cz. The company sells imported wines from multiple countries — including Chile (Aetos), Spain (Bomba, El Cortez XO), France (Louis Perdrier), Australia (Byrne Vineyards), Italy (Tenuta Sette Ponti), South Africa (Stone Pine), and Argentina (Terra Argenta) — across white, rosé, red, and sparkling categories, organised by grape variety. It also operates a premium sub-brand called "Zpívající vína" (Singing Wines) featuring specialty selections such as Bomba Tempranillo, El Cortez XO, and Crémant to Die for, and sells a non-wine accessory, Winesave PRO (a preservation device rated for up to 120 applications).

The business runs on a standard direct-to-consumer e-commerce configuration powered by the Shoptet SaaS platform, with no proprietary front-end technology beyond the storefront design and a 5-star product rating system. There is no evidence of API, SDK, mobile app, or AI/ML components. Distribution is exclusively online within the Czech Republic, delivered via messenger service; the only third-party integrations of note are Facebook Login (account creation) and Heureka.cz (price-comparison and review platform).

WineWorld's revenue model is straightforward unit-pricing on one-time purchases, with per-bottle prices ranging from approximately 200 Kč to over 2,600 Kč depending on variety, region, and age. Commercial levers include a 5% new-customer registration discount, free shipping for orders over 3,000 Kč (incl. VAT), an additional 5% discount for orders over 5,000 Kč, and 5+1 bundle promotions. The company serves only individual Czech wine consumers (personal consumption, gifting, collecting); no B2B, wholesale, or enterprise customers are disclosed. There is no disclosed funding history, no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no management team surfaced in the source data — the company appears to be a lean, owner-operated e-commerce importer with 11–50 employees and a single named customer-support contact (Kateřina).
