Since 1780, Corney & Barrow have been delivering the best wines in the world direct to customer’s doorsteps. Acquiring Royal Warrants dating back to George V in 1912, they remain proudly independent on a foundation of strong relationships. With an extensive range that includes some of the wine industry’s most iconic names, 75% of their portfolio is still exclusive. Fast forward over two centuries, the offices have grown throughout the UK and now expanded to overseas markets Hong Kong, Singapore and Shanghai.

With a discerning audience and growing desire to present the best wine producers from around the globe, Vivid were asked to reimagine how to engage with customer expectations and enhance their online experience.
