About Us
|
In 2001, seven friends - wine and food lovers from America, Vietnam, Singapore, Hong Kong and Thailand - joined hands to form enVision-Phuket Co. Ltd. Beginning with the understanding that wine brings people of different cultures closer together and enriches our lives, these seven founders decided to share their passion for fine wine and the best of excellence from around the world with the local community here in Thailand. Today, enVision-Phuket's mission remains the same: to share its knowledge and offer its customers unique foods and beverages of the highest quality from around the world
Under its corporate charter, enVision-Phuket imports, distributes, and sells premium quality wine, spirits, and lifestyle accessories throughout Thailand. The company also provides a complete range of consulting services, including staff training and wine list design for restaurants and hotels, as well as catering and in-home food and beverage services for villas, yachts and events such as weddings.
The company promotes the moderate and responsible enjoyment of premium alcoholic beverages, maintains the highest of ethical standards in its business practices, strives to enrich the lives of the Thai people by furthering their knowledge, and helps those in the hospitality industry better serve the Kingdom’s tourist visitors.
We are especially proud of our enthusiastic employees who collectively comprise one of the most knowledgeable and professional wine and cuisine lifestyle teams in all of Thailand.

A highly trained sommelier with many years of practical and academic wine education, Katiporn knowledgeably guides our customers in their wine selections with confidence and self-assurance. When not sharing her love of wine with others you probably will find her snorkeling among the fish of Phuket's coral reefs, her other love. |

| Patrick, Chief Oracle and Visionary | ||
| Patrick is a former Food and Beverage Head for Hilton Hotels in Hawaii whose expert knowledge of food and wine is invaluable to enVision-Phuket. Although Patrick came to us by way of New Orleans, where he spent his time perfecting his golf game, today Patrick is a prominent banker here in S.E. Asia. As you can see from his photo, Patrick enjoys his twin passions of Golf and beachcombing in Phuket on the weekends. Fortunately for Phuket, Patrick's nose for food and wine is better than his nose for the green. |
