Practical prospecting tips for Aux Vignobles
-
Download the catalogue in advance. Map out target producers and prioritise meetings according to opening hours.

Time-box encounters. With a dense exhibitor line-up, 15–20 minute slots per stand help assess product fit, pricing and next steps.
-
Use a simple assessment sheet. Record origin, packaging formats, price ranges and minimum order terms to make post-show comparisons efficient.
-
Plan follow-up workflows. Capture contact details and agree on sample shipments or technical documentation during the visit to convert contacts into commercial leads.
Visitor conveniences to consider
Download your tickets and the show catalogue to avoid queues. Purchase the INAO glass at entrance and use on-site catering to maintain energy during long walkthroughs. Free parking reduces logistical friction for teams visiting by car.
If sourcing suppliers is the objective, go prepared with purchase criteria, a rough budget and a clear internal approval path to shorten lead times after the fair.
