Take advantage of a growing pool of liquidity
At a time when market conditions are uncertain, Liv-ex continues to offer a growing pool of liquidity. The platform provides more wines for sale and a broader range of opportunities to buy than ever before.
This increased liquidity gives merchants access to a dynamic, global marketplace where transactions happen faster, and the breadth of wines available continues to grow. With Liv-ex businesses can better adapt to changing market conditions through access to a versatile global network.
Expanding choice
Liv-ex’s expanding marketplace also reflects a significant shift in the choice of wines available. From 2017 to 2024, the number of unique wines traded on Liv-ex grew by 120%, highlighting the increasing range of offerings available. While the number of French wines traded has seen a slight decline, other regions have experienced impressive growth. For example, the volume of wines traded from Germany grew by 280%, the United States saw an increase of 185%, Italy expanded by 130%, and Spain’s share grew by 70%.
This growing breadth not only gives buyers more options but also creates new opportunities for merchants to tap into international markets. Whether you’re looking for rare German Rieslings, emerging American wines, or classic Italian reds, Liv-ex ensures that you can meet the evolving tastes of your clientele and stay ahead of market trends.
