摘要
Purpose - The paper aims to analyse the current situation and the perspectives of Italian wine in key Asian export markets-China, Japan, India, Singapore and South Korea. These countries show the highest growing rates in wine consumption and are forecasted to become increasingly more strategic for Italian wine producers. %26lt;br%26gt;Design/methodology/approach - A SWOT analysis is applied to the most recent set of secondary data available from the Italian National Institute of Statistics (ISTAT), the Italian National Institute for Foreign Trade (ICE), the International Organisation of Wine and Vine (OIV) and Euromonitor International reports. %26lt;br%26gt;Findings - The study reveals that the most interesting markets for Italian wines are China and South Korea. The key strengths are mainly related to high quality products, evoking classic values and being perceived as a status symbol, while the main concerns for Italian wines are mainly related to promotion and distribution issues. %26lt;br%26gt;Research limitations/implications - The SWOT analysis can be used to develop a strategy that takes into consideration the potential strengths and opportunities and the impact of weaknesses and threats, but it cannot cover all the possible aspects Italian wineries must know about Asian markets. It offers a base for further and deeper thoughts about the how to succeed in the most dynamic and challenging markets of the next 20 years. %26lt;br%26gt;Originality/value - Differently from other studies, which tend to analyse Italian perspectives in Asian markets on a country-by-country basis, this work represents the most recent and comprehensive research on Italian wines in Asian markets.
