How the U.S. trade war uncorked a surprising boom for wineries across Canada
Quote:Wasylyshen, president and CEO of Ontario Craft Wineries, which represents more than 100 producers, said wine sales across all retail channels — from grocery and convenience stores to restaurants — have jumped by 78 per cent.
She said the boost in sales has led wineries to hire more staff, invest in new machinery and expand their offerings, such as adding a restaurant component.
"[Consumers] are supporting jobs, tourism, farm families, transportation, manufacturing," Wasylyshen said.
