导读：Garçon Wines recently appointed Angela Mount, a former Somerfield wine buyer, as its supermarket advisor in the UK. The company aims to maximize space savings and unlock the potential of flat bottles with her expertise. Throughout her career, Mount has worked exclusively in the wine industry and is well-known for her extensive retail experience. She was praised for revolutionizing wine shopping at Somerfield, where she once made headlines when her employer insured her taste buds for £1 million.

After leaving Somerfield, Mount took on roles as a wine consultant, writer, and presenter while collaborating with independent individuals and restaurants. She expressed excitement about joining Garçon Wines' innovative team: "Now is an important time for innovation and sustainability. Our industry - like many others - has undergone significant changes due to ongoing crises; consumer shopping habits have forever changed."

Mount highlighted that flat bottles not only provide more storage space on shelves and in store areas but also ensure easier and more reliable transportation of samples while minimizing breakage and reducing glass usage. "I will always support new ideas," she said, "and bring fresh energy to our market."
