2. Competitive Rivalry
Wine producers in the United States and abroad compete fiercely.
The wine business is extremely fragmented, with several companies competing
for consumers' attention.
Competitive advantage is determined by variables including product quality, cost,
promotion, and distribution methods.
In the wine industry the switching cost is low.
3. Power: Buyers
Due to the availability of competing brands and products, consumers in the wine
industry frequently have a moderate amount of influence.
In the wine industry there is no high switching cost.
In the wine industry there are so many substitutes.
The power of buyers is high. So the industry is unattractive
4. Power: Suppliers
In the wine industry there have a high number of substitutes.
In the wine industry there have a high number of competitors.
Winer companies rely on suppliers for grapes, barrels, packaging materials, and
other inputs.
5. Threat of Substitutes
The threat of substitutes for wine includes other alcoholic beverages like beer,
spirits, and cocktails.

Additionally, within the wine category, various types and brands are competing
for consumer attention.
Besides new technology is innovative for producing wine at a lower cost
6. Complementors
wine accessories, gourmet food pairings, tourism, and wine education, can
influence wine sales and consumer experience.
Seafood, BBQ
So lastly by using this Porter's 5+1 force tool, we can say that the wine industry is moderate. So
Mondavi can operate in this industry if they formulate effective strategies to navigate the
competitive landscape and sustain growth.

Customer wants
High Quality: Across all segments, there is a growing demand for higher-quality wines.
This is evident in the decline of jug wine sales and the growth of premium wine sales.
Varietal Wines: Customers are increasingly interested in wines identified by the grape
variety used, such as chardonnay or zinfandel, rather than by region.
Convenience: Consumers are increasingly purchasing wine at supermarkets, wholesale
clubs, and mass merchandisers. This suggests a desire for convenience in purchasing
wine.
Brand Recognition: Consumers seem to respond well to established brands with a
reputation for quality, like Robert Mondavi.

Competitive drivers
Price: There is a wide range of prices for wine, from inexpensive jug wines to very
expensive luxury wines. Wineries compete within specific price segments.
Quality: Winemakers are constantly innovating and experimenting with new techniques
to produce higher-quality wines.
Brand Image: Wineries that can build a strong brand image for quality and innovation
can attract and retain customers.
Distribution: Effective distribution channels are essential for getting wine to consumers.
The three-tiered system in the US creates challenges for some wineries.
Marketing & Advertising: Wineries use a variety of marketing and advertising
techniques to reach consumers, with a focus on channel promotion for premium wines.
Grape Sourcing: Access to high-quality grapes is essential for producing premium
wines. Wineries may own or lease vineyards or contract with independent growers.
