Job Description

Laureate Imports Company was established in 1979 as a subsidiary of The Coca-Cola Trading Company.

In 1991, Coca-Cola sold Laureate Imports Company to a major wine supplier at that time in Slovenia named Slovenijavino. In 2000, Slovenijavino's trademarked wines were acquired by the very well-known and highly regarded winery, Klet Brda in Dobrovo on the Italian border.
