National Association of Wine Retailers

National Association of Wine Retailers Founded in 2006, NAWR is a national association of progressive wine retailers, Internet wine stores, wine clubs, wine auction houses and affiliated business.

NAWR lobbies, litigates and educates in an effort to change protectionist laws preventing wine stores and wine lovers from transacting business with one another, while protecting the pocket books of special interests. NAWR opposes restrictive and protectionist state laws through legislation, litigation, and industry education. The Association provides its members with benefits that help it succeed in a modern retail landscape.
