IWC Industry Awards - winners revealed

Last night (8 September 2026), the great and the good of the UK wine industry gathered at London's prestigious Guildhall to celebrate and applaud the winners of this year's IWC Industry Awards.

Launched in 1991, the International Wine Challenge UK Industry Awards recognise and reward the outstanding achievements of the UK wine trade. Now firmly established as one of the largest and most respected awards events in the UK wine trade calendar, the awards celebrate the people and businesses helping to shape the industry.



Each year, we recognise the incredible achievements of the inspirational people behind the UK's most innovative wine retailing businesses. The IWC Industry Awards celebrate the work of major retailers, merchants, distributors and agents, as well as everyone who plays a part in bringing the joy of wine to UK consumers. Winning an IWC Industry Award also provides valuable promotional and business opportunities for recipients.

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank our IWC Industry Awards partners, whose support helps make the awards possible.
