BreweryBrewery News Brewery


Brewery news USA: Big brewers struggling to tap into shifting consumer trends
Once the undisputed kings of beer in the US, AB InBev and MillerCoors are struggling to curtail a multi-year slump in sales of their top brands and re-energize brews that have failed to keep pace with changing consumer tastes and trends, Food Dive reported on April 26.

"If you could go back in a time machine you would say, 'Shoot, I wish back then that we had started to follow those trends that were growing,' ...but we recognize it now and we're fixing it," Greg Butler, vice president of Miller Brands at MillerCoors, told Food Dive. "We held on to the equation for too long."

The major beer producers are facing threats on several fronts as Americans move away from domestic lagers in favor of Mexican imports, craft beers and wine and spirits. A growing number of consumers are also turning to low-calorie and no- or low-alcohol brews as part of a broader health and wellness trend sweeping the food and beverage industry.

Despite a host of new products tied to these preferences and trends, the big players in U.S. beer continue to struggle to curtail slumping sales and stem the loss in market share. Total beer shipments declined 1.3% in 2017, ...More info on site

Brewery news Latin America: Corona edges out Skol from the position of Latin America’s most valuable brand
Mexican beer Corona is the most valuable brand in Latin America, overtaking Brazil's Skol, which has held the title for the past two years, according to the sixth-annual BrandZ™ Top 50 Most Valuable Latin American Brands announced on April 27 by WPP with data prepared by Kantar.

Corona took the top spot in the ranking after seeing an 8% brand value growth to $8.292 billion, edging out Skol, which grew by just 1% to $8.263 bln. The brand is sold in more than 180 countries and its success and global growth have been helped by Corona's ability to generate an affiliation with the "fun-loving" attributes associated with Mexican and Latin culture.

The overall Latin America Top 10 ranking is mainly represented by beer (four brands – Corona, Skol, Brahma, and Aguila), followed by financial institutions (two brands), retail (two brands) and communications providers (one brand).

Over the years the beer segment has been dominant in this ranking, but this year, four beer brands are present in the Top 10, rather than five. In addition, brands in the financial institutions category have achieved their best positions in the Top 10 since 2012.

The four beer brands in the Top 10 this year together posted ...More info on site

Brewery news Mozambique: Brewers and importers warn against imposing fiscal stamps on beer
The producers and importers of alcoholic drinks have warned that plans by the Mozambican Tax Authority (AT) to impose fiscal stamps on beer will backfire and result in less tax, not more, being collected, AllAfrica.com reported on April 27.

A ministerial diploma of 2016 made it obligatory to place fiscal stamps on tobacco products and alcoholic drinks. Since then the stamps have been introduced successfully on cigarette packets and on wines and spirits.

Putting stamps on cans and bottles of beer is much more challenging. At a Maputo press conference on April 25, the Association of Drinks Producers and Importers (ABIBA) warned that, if the measure goes ahead, taxes raised from beer could collapse from the current eight billion meticais (about 132 million US dollars) a year to five billion meticais. That would be an annual loss to the exchequer of over 49 million dollars.

The chairperson for the beers sector of ABIBA, Neyde Pires, said that adding fiscal stamps puts a heavy technical burden on beer producers.

Furthermore, the process of adding fiscal stamps is an additional cost for beer producers. That cost would be passed on to consumers, who might react by buying less beer. If less beer was sold, the breweries ...More info on site

Barley news EU: Spring plantings almost done in Denmark and Sweden
Spring barley plantings in Denmark and South Sweden are more or less done whereas Sweden still has about 50% to do, GrainCom said in their latest newsletter on April 27.

Plantings in UK are still not finished yet due to weather conditions and it is not unlikely that some of the spring barley area will be lost.

There was some more activity this week on both old and new crop as the current price levels seem to generate more buying interest.

Logistics in France remains a big issue with train traffic heavily hurt by the strike and high demand for trucks and barges leads to higher prices.
