Online wine retailer Naked Wines certainly celebrated its 2nd<\/sup> birthday in style by taking home the top prize at this year’s Startups Awards.<\/p>\n

The business, which launched two years ago this week, also announced a £10m investment pot to fund its global network of independent wine producers – double the amount raised last year.<\/p>\n

After winning the Online Business of the Year prize at this year’s ceremony, the company then walked away with the top gong too.<\/p>\n

Speaking about his Startups Awards win, founder Rowan Gormley said: “To win two Startups awards, especially the big one, is an absolute honour. And it’s thanks to two sets of people; thousands of UK wine drinkers, our customers, who took the plunge and trusted us with their money. And our first few winemakers, who trusted us with their wines and adopted a new way of doing business.<\/p>\n

“Since launch, we’ve helped 22 winemakers set up shop, create 85 new wines and sell over a million bottles between them – and our goal for 2011 is to double this.”<\/p>\n

Other winners of this year included e-commerce same day delivery platform Shutl, which took home the angel\/VC backed award, DIG IT Projects which creates and manages allotment patches in schools, and The Thoughtful Bread Company, an environmentally friendly bakery based in Bath.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
