The Wine & Spirit Trade Association works with its members to improve standards across the industry and share best practice in the production, marketing and sale of alcohol in the UK.

Alcohol misuse is a complex issue that must be tackled in a targeted way by a wide range of stakeholders.  Working in partnership with Government, NGOs and other bodies, industry has an important role to play in promoting sensible drinking and selling and marketing products legally and responsibly.
