Champagne in Short Supply – What happened to the Recession?

Times are hard; everyone is cutting back and tightening their wallets; “everyone is in this together”…. Well it appears not everyone is in the same boat. In times of hardship and recession you would assume luxury items including Champagne to fall in sales, however this has not happened and in fact Champagne sales have been increasing. It appears the bankers have not lost their taste for champagne.  

At Champagne Gold we have been growing in sales since day one, however this is due to business strategy etc, not market growth – or so we thought. When we read the below article regarding champagne sales nationally/ globally we were very surprised and somewhat disappointed. When you see those around you losing their jobs etc you assume it is the same for all of the U.K, however the old saying “the rich get richer and poor get poorer” appears to be true – unfortunately.
