What your winery gains
A successful application can secure up to €325,000 in public funding capital that finances state-of-the-art equipment, green technologies and digital tools, cutting operating costs while boosting capacity. Modern facilities and sustainable practices strengthen ESG credentials, enlarge market share for certified wines (PDO, PGI, organic) and open doors to global value chains. Because the call is competitive, a high-scoring file is crucial.
Implementation steps – the QLC method
QLC starts with a thorough eligibility check. We then craft a business plan that maximises points for sustainability, innovation and market impact. Our team prepares and submits the fully documented application in the online portal and, once approved, manages the project, progress reports and final disbursement dossier ensuring you capitalise on every euro of the grant without delays.
