E-Malt.com News article: South Africa: South Africans warned of a looming increase in beer prices

The National Enterprises Workers Union Ya Afrika (NEWUYA) is warning South Africans of a looming increase in the price of beer as workers at the United National Breweries enter the fifth week of strike action over wage disputes, Primedia Plus reported on July 12.

NEWUYA initiated industrial action over a month ago due to the employer's persistent failure to implement wage adjustments agreed upon in April 2021.

More than a hundred employees at the African beer manufacturing company have joined the strike, leading to notable reductions in production volumes in recent weeks and mounting pressure on the company.
