Gary’s Wine & Marketplace, one of New Jersey’s largest fine wine, spirits, and gourmet specialty food retailers, has been chosen 2012 “Retailer of the Year” by Beverage Dynamics, the influential trade publication targeted to beverage alcohol retailers.
The publication noted that Gary’s three-store chain “since its origins in 1987, has elevated the wine experience in northern New Jersey.” The award names CEO and company founder Gary Fisch as an important innovator credited with having “combined the New York idea of the wine superstore with the European idea of the upscale wine-and-food emporium.” The article echoes the words of New Jersey Monthly, which cited Mr. Fisch as one of the “101 Most Influential People in the Garden State.”
In response to the news, Mr. Fisch noted: “As we celebrate our 25th year in business, it’s gratifying to know that we helped reshape the region’s wine-buying landscape. At the same time, it’s allowed us to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for local charities through our annual Grand Tasting, and by sponsoring numerous wine events…”
Congratulations to Gary’s Wine & Marketplace.
Bon Appétit!
