This change will not affect the Australian Stock Exchange listed trading entity, which will remain as Evans & Tate Limited.
The company said the change was considered necessary for a number of reasons, including its expanding operations, which now include viticultural management services, contract processing, as well as manufacturing and selling wine.
Following its expanding international role, Evans & Tate said it also needed to be able to clearly communicate the nature of its business to audiences who do not have the high level of name awareness the company enjoys in the Australian market.
Chairman and chief executive officer, Franklin Tate said: “For some time we have recognised the lack of transparency in the name Evans & Tate when it came to communicating with third parties who were not familiar with our business. The change we are making today will address these concerns.
