Cherries & Grapes Online Michigan Wine Marketplace Expands and Excites

Cherries & Grapes – an online marketplace for Michigan wine, cider and specialty products – has continued to expand its products and capabilities. Cascade Winery and Burgdorf’s Winery are the latest wineries to join the online marketplace for Michigan wine. In addition to more products, Cherries & Grapes has continued to add new capabilities, including club management and a Facebook App that allows wineries and cideries to sell their products directly from their Facebook page.

“We are excited by the warm welcome that we have received from Michigan wine and cider fans,” says Michael Mikhjian, co-founder and technology lead at Cherries & Grapes. Local Michigan wine and hard cider fans will benefit from online access to their favorite wineries and cideries. If customers cannot make a trip across the state to the tasting room, they are able to easily order online and receive their delivery within a couple days.

Over the past month, Cherries & Grapes has added a number of features that help customers easily purchase wine online. “We are particularly excited about the launch of our Facebook App,” says Michael. “Our clients can extend their online store to their Facebook page, where their customers spend most of their time visiting.”

In addition to their Facebook App, Cherries & Grapes has continually improved their social experience for customers. Pinterest, Facebook and Twitter support is built-in to allow customers to share their favorite products with friends and family.

While Cherries & Grapes is designed to be a customer-centric website, it also simplifies life for Cherries & Grapes clients. “Cherries & Grapes makes selling online easy,” says Michael. “Our wineries benefit from instant age verification, shipping automation, club management and useful reporting. They realize that they can quickly start selling online without any upfront investment or on-going commitment.”

Local Michigan wineries, cideries and specialty companies that are interested in selling online can contact Cherries & Grapes at info @ cherriesandgrapes.com.

Michigan Wine Goes Viral: CherriesAndGrapes.com

Cherries & Grapes, a Michigan-based business, launched an online marketplace in August offering a variety of Michigan wine and specialty products. Consumers can now have their favorite wine, cider and specialty products shipped directly from Michigan producers on the CherriesAndGrapes.com marketplace. Likewise, Michigan businesses can now easily and safely offer their products online, with no upfront cost.

“We are doubling down on Michigan,” says the Cherries & Grapes Team. “Anyone that has spent time in our great state knows that Michigan has amazing products and wonderful people. We’re putting our money on that winning combination.”

Wineries and cider producers are now able to quickly get up-and-running with CherriesAndGrapes.com, complete with automated ID verification and logistics assistance.

“We like to think that we make life easier for Michigan businesses that want to sell online,” representatives from Cherries & Grapes says. “The best part is that producers avoid the headaches of developing their own solution, and leverage the collective marketing and technology experience offered by Cherries & Grapes.”

According to Michael Mikhjian, Cherries & Grapes Chief Technology Officer, a store can be online and processing orders in a day or two.

Cherries & Grape’s first online retail store is Chateau de Leelanau, a Michigan Vineyard and Winery located just north of Traverse City on the Leelanau Peninsula.

“Chateau de Leelanau has award-winning wines, but they are not available outside their tasting room in Suttons Bay,” comments the team. “By offering their wines on CherriesAndGrapes.com, they are able to deliver wine to customers anywhere in Michigan in a very cost-effective way.”

In addition to providing an online storefront, Cherries & Grapes also promotes its partners on various social media platforms and via other marketing channels.
