for Wineries
A practical introduction for wine farm staff, managers, and executives who want to master compliance, understand industry regulations, and operate with confidence.
The South African wine industry is complex. Between SAWIS compliance requirements, record-keeping, and industry regulations, it’s easy for staff to feel overwhelmed. Mistakes lead to delays, penalties, or worse — non-compliance.
This course gives you and your team a clear, step-by-step understanding of the wine industry and SAWIS requirements so you avoid costly errors and build a strong foundation for success, as well as valuable history and insights into the big picture.
