Certificate Marketing and Sales of Food and Wine
The Marketing and Sales of Food & Wine Certificate program prepares students for a career involving selling wine to wholesalers, retailers, restaurants and the public. Students study marketing techniques, including packaging, pricing and branding of wines; explore the demographics of wine sales and marketing of brands throughout the world; and learn about compliance and government regulations.
Students gain practical experience by working in retail sales, packaging, advertising and promotion of wine in our on-campus tasting room. Emphasis is placed on merchandising, marketing of products, labeling, online sales, inventory, government compliance, social media, and wine club. Additionally, students work at our interactive wine release events, and are given opportunities to work at many industry events throughout Seattle and Washington State.
