Growth Sprint Beverage Sector 2026:
prepare your business now for autumn
✽ Use the summer to prepare your liquor store, wine shop, winery, import business, wholesaler, or beverage brand for the important autumn and holiday season.
The Growth Sprint Beverage Sector 2026 is a practical implementation program by Newconomie for Dutch liquor stores, wine shops, wine merchants, wineries, importers, wholesalers, distributors, and beverage brands. The program helps businesses better align their online shop, product data, inventory, B2B sales, CRM, marketing, and administration before autumn, usually with Odoo as the central business software.
Growth Sprint Beverage Sector 2026: prepare your business now for the fall
✽ Use the summer to get your liquor store, wine trade, winery, import business, wholesale or beverage brand ready to
make the important fall and holiday season.
The Growth Sprint Beverage Sector 2026 is a practical implementation track from Newconomie for Dutch liquor stores, wine shops, wine trades, wineries, importers, wholesalers, distributors and beverage brands. The track helps companies to better align webshop, product data, inventory, B2B sales, CRM, marketing and administration before the fall, usually with Odoo as the central business software.
Summer Is Not the Same for Every Beverage Business
The summer is not the same for every beverage company
A liquor store notices in the summer often immediately that regular customers are on vacation and store visits become less
predictable. A wine trade or importer may actually face a quieter acquisition
period, longer response times from business customers, and delayed decisions.
A winery or beverage brand
often uses the same months to prepare new vintages, assortments, campaigns, and distribution.


“The pressure differs per business model, but one development is broadly visible: digital sales remain important. Statistics Netherlands (CBS) reported that Dutch online retail turnover in May 2026 was 4.8 percent higher than a year earlier. For multichannel stores, which combine physical sales and online sales, growth was 6.7 percent.”

Within the liquor store market, the pressure is even more concrete. Hiiper reported a sharp decline in the market for 2025. This figure does not automatically apply to every winery, importer, or wholesaler, but it does underline that waiting is not a growth strategy.
The question is therefore not whether every beverage company should start a large national online shop. The question is which commercial and operational improvements will truly add value before autumn

Who Is the Growth Sprint Intended For?
The campaign targets companies that sell or distribute wine, spirits, beer, non-alcoholic beverages, and related products, but do not primarily produce. Breweries and distilleries will receive a separate sector approach later for production, recipes, batches, and excise processes.

Why Summer Is the Right Time
From September onwards, commercial pressure increases rapidly for many businesses. Tastings, autumn assortments, hospitality deliveries, corporate gifts, Black Friday, Sinterklaas, Christmas, and New Year's Eve follow each other in quick succession.
Those who only start in November with cleaning up product data, organizing B2B prices or
building a campaign, is too late. The summer provides space to make choices, data to
check, systems to test and train employees.
● Producten, jaargangen, barcodes, verpakkingen, prijzen en afbeeldingen controleren.
● Logically organize inventory locations, store inventory, and commercial inventory.
● Collect business customers, distributors, and previous quotes into one CRM.


● Prepare online shops, ordering portals, and customer-specific pricelists.
● Set up campaigns for tastings, hospitality, corporate gifts, and holidays.
● Have employees work with the new processes before it gets busy.

That depends on the technology, product data, and desired connections. Sometimes an existing environment can be improved. In other cases, a new integrated website, webshop, or B2B environment is more efficient.
Yes. Odoo can support various sales channels, price lists, customer groups, webshops, quotes, sales orders and payment terms. The setup is tailored to the actual sales processes.
