ROWAN GORMLEY  -  NAKED WINES



Naked Wines is an online wine retailer founded by Rowan Gormley which launched in the UK on the 1st December 2008. The company was founded by Richard Branson's former right-hand-man and serial-entrepreneur Rowan Gormley . Rowan's previous ventures include setting-up and running Virgin Direct (now Virgin Money), the Virgin One Account, and Virgin Wines. When leaving Virgin Wines in the summer of 2008, his 15-strong management team followed suit to become Founding Partners at Naked.  Naked Wines is an online market for wine  which supports independent winemakers from around the world. It invests in the winemakers in return for preferential prices, which it passes on to its customers. Its website allows customers to talk directly to the winemakers and other customers via a social networking platform. Customers can become 'Angels' for winemakers, which means paying a monthly subscription fee towards their next order. Angels get between 25% and 50% off every time they buy in return for their support.  In July 2009 Naked Wines was announced as Jamie Oliver's wine partner  . A dedicated wine section was added to the Jamie Oliver website with wine recommendations from Jamie Oliver . Recipes on Jamie Oliver's website are also paired to wine matches available from the Naked Wines website.
