International Qualification:

qualification for SME’s can be charted using six
dimensions:
Competencies
Heritage
Relationships
Offering
Means
Engagement

International Qualification:
Adelaide Hills Distillery (AHD) scores, out of 5, the
following on a CHROME SME model.
The management of the firm scores highly in its
competencies and engagement. Sacha La Forgia’s
extensive experience working abroad creates value for
the firm by his first hand knowledge of the global spirit
and distilling trade.
However, the foreign relationships of AHD are still
lacking. The company has yet to start offering its
products first hand overseas. Nonetheless, the
company has started competing in tasting competitions
which are proving to be successful.
