About Robert Butler

As a wine buyer at Oceana Natural Foods, I source, select, and sell wines that meet the needs and preferences of our customers. I have a keen eye for quality, value, and diversity, and I use my extensive product knowledge and market research skills to identify and introduce new and exclusive brands to our store. I also manage the wine inventory, budget, and display, ensuring optimal availability, profitability, and presentation. I increased year to years sales by more than 10% on average and increased our inventory buy increasing the our distribution list by 75%. I also, increased engagement and exposure with customers and the community through interaction with the chamber of commerce and tastings and word of mouth. With over 11 years of experience as an independent consultant and a former retail business owner, I have developed and utilized fantastic communication skills in spoken and written mediums. I excel at building and maintaining relationships with suppliers, distributors, and customers, using CRM, customer success, and marketing tools to enhance customer satisfaction and loyalty. I love to be challenged and to explore new opportunities in the wine industry, where I can apply my passion, creativity, and analytical abilities.
