About the CAVAVIN wine franchise

CAVAVIN is a specialist wine, champagne and spirits retail franchise, established in 1985. As a franchisee, you run your own shop, curating a personal selection for your local customers from a network of 300 winegrowers and 2,000+ references. You’re a merchant, not just a manager — building relationships with both your customers and your suppliers.

Why choose a CAVAVIN franchise?

  • 40+ years of expertise sourcing wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy, Rioja, Tuscany, New Zealand, South Africa and beyond
  • A close-knit network connecting franchisees, the franchisor and winegrowers directly — no faceless supply chain
  • Freedom to curate your own in-store selection, backed by centralised sourcing power
  • A trusted, established brand with over 2,000 product references available
