Distance Selling Panel
The Distance Selling Panel was created in 1992. Its two main functions were to keep its members up to date on issues affecting the sector and to maintain the WSTA Distance Selling Code.
Key Issues:
- Distance Selling Code of Practice: The Code was developed by the panel to encourage best practice.
- En primeur wine market: the Panel has published a guide to the En primeur wine market.
- Investing in fine wines: a guide and a website were launched to provide advice to consumers about the pitfalls of investing in fine wines and how to avoid fraud.
