Wine Victoria Strategic Plan 2022 – 2025

We have been working on the development of the Wine Victoria Strategic Plan 2022 – 2025 which is to be released in qtr 3. Critical to this process is hearing from as many stakeholders and members as possible. The strategic plan will outline the key priorities and projects for Wine Victoria based on the insights from our members across the entire industry. Thank you to all who completed the surveys. The key insights from members will be presented at the next Seasonal Roundtable for the Regional Associations in late August.
