As enrollment continues to grow at the Rosen College of Hospitality Management at the 海角直播, so does its support from industry partners. Premier Beverage Company, one of Florida\u2019s largest fine wine wholesale distributers, recently donated 1,860 bottles of product to allow the college to offer more fine wine courses to accommodate its increasing student body.<\/p>\n
Premier Beverage Company and UCF\u2019s Rosen College partnered in 2011 to allow up to 450 students a year to take courses that focused on the historical, geographical and technical components of fine wines. The substantial 67 percent\u00a0increased contribution from Premier Beverage Company now allows the college to support\u00a0more than\u00a0750 students throughout the academic year.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn looking over the wine list, I am very impressed with not only the quantity, but also the quality and breadth of product that Premier Beverage has generously donated to our program,\u201d said Dr. Frank Juge, a UCF Rosen College professor. \u201cIt reflects their continued support of our college and curriculum, as well as their commitment to educating the future hospitality leaders of the world in fine wines.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to Juge, \u201capproximately one third of the profit from restaurants is generated from wine sales, and in order for our students to become effective managers of such restaurants, it is essential for Hospitality Management and Restaurant & Foodservice Management majors to understand fine wines and food pairings.”<\/p>\n
\u201cPremier Beverage Company is a proud partner of this institute of higher learning, and we look forward to continue taking an active role in the education of these future leaders,\u201d said Eric Pfeil, executive vice president of Premier Beverage Company.<\/p>\n
