Ideal for businesses seeking growth and innovation, the V.I.P fosters a diverse and inclusive vendor community.

A deeper dive into qualifications

Moving to the Southern Glazer’s iShop platform will enable you to:

  • Receive purchase orders electronically.
  • Submit and track your invoices online.
  • Reduce postal and other administrative costs.
  • Eliminate the risk of invoices lost in the mail.
  • Improve communications with Southern Glazer’s regarding financial transactions.

We’re investing in the Southern Glazer’s iShop platform to provide a mutually efficient way of doing business and eliminate your pain points, therefore this process is mandatory for vendors dedicated to supplying marketing and promotional goods and services. Southern Glazer’s vendors who only occasionally supply related services may continue to transact through the existing settlement methods.

No. Southern Glazer’s customers will continue to order trade products – wine, spirits, beer, etc. – through their current channel.

If you are executing a series of events under the same program, we can assign a single Blanket Purchase Order to cover the entire activity which may be executed over a series of months. Discuss this with your Southern Glazer’s Trade Development and Sales contacts if this is a need.

All Southern Glazer’s in-market activities and commitments are managed by our Trade Development Teams and other authorized employees and are governed by a Purchase Order reference number established in the iShop tool at initiation of the activity. Always ensure that any party you are working with is in contact with the correct Southern Glazer’s authority to ensure prompt payment.
