Davide Marcovitch, vice president of the French Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton for Latin America, said he was confident his group’s sale will grow in Cuba because, in his opinion, the Cuban barmen and sommeliers are the best in the region.
 
Speaking to reporters, Marcovitch praised the high qualification of the Cuban sommeliers and bartenders, which allow them to meet successfully the growth of luxury tourism underway in Cuba.

The extensive knowledge and solid education of those professionals who can explain every detail to visitors regarding each brand of cognac, wine and other spirits, are enough to feel satisfied with the marketing of our products in such a safe market, noted Marcovitch .

Meanwhile, Gilles Velluzat, Moët Hennessy Market Director for Latin America and the Caribbean, reiterated the potential of the island for marketing their top-notch spirits, and the advantages of having a well prepared and trained staff.

Taking into account the steady growth of tourism and the quality of sommeliers and bartenders, we can say that Cuba is a very promising market for our company, said the specialist.

Marcovitch visited Havana invited by Inversiones Pucara S. A., the distribution company for Moët Hennessy productions in Cuba.

As part of his working agend, the French executive met with industry representatives, experts, cigar tasters, journalists and officials of the Cuban Ministry of Tourism at the Melia Habana Hotel in this capital.
