Rodrigo LANARI Manager WINE2B at WINE.COMBR, WINE 1 SPIRITS, MBA Class 2009

“I currently work for wine.com.br, the largest wine and beer e-commerce operation in Latin America. After being very successful in selling wines to consumer directly (B2C), the company decided to create a dedicated division, meeting the needs of restaurants, hotels and specialty stores (B2B), combining its efficient logistics chain with a well-established e-commerce platform. I am responsible for the entire B2B operation, from product management, marketing to the commercial operation of the business unit.”
