Shopping online has now become a reflex. However, some consumers still remain wary of online platforms when it comes to larger purchases. What are the benefits of buying quality products online?
Online shopping
Shopping online has become a reflex for more and more French people. In just a few clicks, you can go shopping for the latest trends in ready-to-wear, decorative accessories for the home, high-tech products, etc. It has even been possible for several years to do all your shopping thanks to the supermarkets which have set up Drive systems. This is without taking into account the meteoric rise of express delivery platforms for meals and fast food at home. However, some consumers still remain wary of online platforms when it comes to larger purchases.
The French are especially wary of ordering higher-end culinary products online because of certain preconceived ideas. It can be the lack of confidence in the good quality of the products, the good delivery of these, fears about the price of the delivery service, or even the lack of human support in the purchase… Sometimes we can even feel the fear of bad information on the origin of the products, the fear of a less responsible purchase (questions on the fair remuneration of the producers, on the environmental impact with an additional delivery… etc.) so many reasons for us dissuade you from buying online.
Wines and Champagne, go to the cellar in one click
Among the products considered to be top of the range that can be purchased on the internet, Champagne is at the forefront and many merchant sites have specialized in the field. The purchase of high-end wines and champagnes is on the rise. One of the advantages of choosing to order champagne online is, among other things, being able to access a wide range of beautiful bottles that you will not find in a supermarket type store. In addition to delighting your guests, you will impress them. In addition to that, you will be able to benefit from detailed professional advice by telephone, and access qualitative product sheets directly on specialized sites.
Delivery is generally made by short circuit, in fact, there is no additional transport since the products leave directly from the estate/château or their cellars. Thanks to this process, the quality of wines and champagnes is better preserved than if they are moved several times between distributors and retailers. In conclusion, advantages and time savings for you! So, are you won over by the idea of ordering your magnum of Veuve Clicquot online ?
