News Why Tesco’s New Wine Manager Is A Game Changer by Olivier Watson February 17, 2025 3 min 4 Excited about Tesco's wine direction? I can’t wait to see what Beth Kelly brings! Her journey is inspiring, and the wines will surely shine.The Journey of a Wine Connoisseur When I first heard that Beth Kelly, the former buying manager at Majestic Wine, had joined Tesco as their new wine product development manager, my heart raced with excitement. This isn’t just another managerial change; it marks a potential shift in how we experience and perceive wine at one of Britain’s largest retailers. Beth has a background that weaves through prestigious roles—from Oddbins to leading events at WSET—and now she carries her wealth of knowledge into the aisles of Tesco. Her move isn’t merely an employment switch; it speaks volumes about her dedication to enhancing consumer choices in wine. Can you imagine how her experiences with Burgundy, South African selections, and sparkling wines will influence what we find on store shelves? This makes for quite an engaging narrative in our ongoing quest for exceptional sips. Expertise That Shines Through Beth’s transition signifies more than just personal growth; it reflects her commitment to driving sustainable practices within the wine industry—an area where she has already made notable strides as deputy chair at Sustainable Wines of Great Britain. She recognizes that today’s consumers are more discerning than ever; they not only seek quality but also value brands committed to sustainability. This aligns perfectly with Tesco’s vision. In an era where customers demand transparency and ethics behind their purchases, it feels refreshing that someone like Beth is stepping up to inform our choices while holding fast to those principles. Imagine browsing through Tesco’s updated wine selection with confidence that you’re making a choice rooted in expertise! Learning from Experience As someone who loves delving into unique wine stories, I was particularly drawn to Beth’s remark about learning from the skilled Tesco team—what humility! With Graham Nash welcoming her aboard and praising her depth of experience, it’s clear that collaboration will be key in crafting a robust range tailored for all types of consumers. Having worked alongside passionate professionals myself, I can relate to this sentiment deeply: there’s always something new around every corner. Whether it’s a novel pairing idea or unearthing lesser-known regions bursting with potential—like PiWi varieties now entering mainstream consciousness—it’s exciting times ahead. Navigating Sustainability Within Wine One thread woven through my own exploration has been sustainability—a passion shared by many in today’s conscious marketplace including industry stalwarts like Beth. As she moves forward into this role at Tesco—which prides itself on community commitment—we might anticipate innovative collaborations aimed toward responsible sourcing and eco-friendly practices.
