Our mission is to help our customers discover wines, beers and spirits they will love. We always go one step further to ensure they have a fantastic personalised experience in store – whether that's through our in-store tasting counters, expert recommendations, our unique no-quibble refund guarantee, free glass hire, or our carry-to-car service.

As a national specialist, it's our responsibility to have a market-leading, innovative range. That's why our multi-award-winning buying team is always on the hunt for products that combine real quality with value. And each of our 1,400 wines, beers and spirits has something truly special to offer.

We pride ourselves on our friendly, expert colleagues both in the Support Centre and in our stores – our key strength is over 1,000 WSET trained colleagues offering knowledgeable service across all channels. In fact, we’re one of Europe’s biggest wine educators.

Our Majestic Commercial B2B division now supplies more than 3,000 gastropubs, bars, restaurants, fine dining venues and hospitality operators across the UK. Our unique proposition combining the buying power and expertise of a national specialist, with the local, personalised service from our store teams, has allowed us to secure high-profile partners including Manchester City Football Club and the prestigious JCB Golf & Country Club.
