In addition to this, Algodon Wine Estates intends to leverage Ginevra Sotheby's International Realty brand and network with more than 18,000 sales associates located in 825 offices in 61 countries and territories worldwide, while utilizing the local expertise of the GNV Group to form Ginevra Sotheby's International Realty. Ginevra Sotheby's International Realty is a leading luxury real estate firm in Buenos Aires, Argentina with listings in the most prestigious neighborhoods in the city of Buenos Aires and the rest of the country. Through Ginevra Sotheby's International Realty's website (ginevrasir.com), and Compass, Algodon Wine Estates' listings will be marketed online at sothebysrealty.com to a global clientele.
"As you know, we have embarked upon a journey to make Algodon the finest wine, wellness, culinary, and sport destination - not only in Argentina - but in in the world," said Scott Mathis Chairman and CEO of Gaucho Group Holdings, Inc. "This has culminated in us partnering with Compass, one of the fastest growing and most technologically adept real estate firms in the world. Compass, with the assistance of local Buenos Aires Real Estate agency Ginevra Sotheby's International Realty, is set to launch a major marketing push in the next quarter that could possibly reach millions of potential buyers." He went on to say, "the road in Argentina has not been the smoothest over the past few years, but now we believe the timing could not be better… with an impending election in October, on a re-election of incumbent President Mauricio Macri, we anticipate a positive paradigm shift, attracting international interest in the Argentine economy, and in turn domestic real estate assets. It is because of this potential shift that we believe Argentina can become the global opportunity of the next decade."
