Direct from Italy Secures €1M Seed Round to Revolutionize Global D2C Alcohol Sales Compliance

Direct from Italy is thrilled to announce a major funding milestone with a fresh investment of 1,000,000 euros to further revolutionize compliance solutions in the spirits and beverage industry.

The company has been at the forefront of technological innovation by developing cutting‐edge software systems that ensure impeccable customs compliance for direct alcohol sales across more than 40 countries.

These robust tools simplify the complex process of calculating excise taxes, tariffs, transportation costs, customs paperwork, and destination VAT as governed by OSS regulations.

By integrating these critical functions into a single, intuitive platform, Direct from Italy empowers wineries, distilleries, and breweries to manage their direct-to-consumer sales independently and securely—whether from their retail outlets or online e-commerce sites.

This significant fundraise will be strategically channeled to enhance the existing software, expand our technological infrastructure, and refine our integrated solutions to further streamline logistics, customs procedures, and customer care management.

The company’s innovative approach not only minimizes intermediary risks but also supports the growing demand for autonomous and compliant direct sales, thereby optimizing the tourism-related supply chain in the process.

Approved by customs authorities, our service is carefully designed to nurture and cultivate strong, direct relationships between producers and consumers, ensuring that every bottle makes its way seamlessly from the cellar, distillery, or brewery straight to the customer’s doorstep.

With this fresh injection of capital, Direct from Italy is poised to reinforce its leadership in the digital transformation of the alcohol trade, confidently heading into an era of expanded global reach and enhanced efficiency.
