Mexico: Brewing resumes in Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey
|
Mexico’s beer industry resumed its production and distribution operations this Monday, June 1 only in Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey, sector sources confirmed to La Jornada.
Grupo Modelo has its production plant in Mexico City and operates at 25 percent of its capacity, while the Heineken brewery, which has it in Monterrey, resumed at 50 percent.
Production and distribution were also reactivated in Guadalajara, a city where both firms have industrial plants.
The brewers reactivated these processes with strict adherence to the safety instructions that the health authorities have set, in order to mitigate the Covid-19 infections.
In the other states of the Republic, indicated the sources consulted, the reactivation will take place when the local governments give the green light.
Since last April 5, the main breweries stopped operations throughout the country, as it was one of the measures adopted by the health authorities, since the industry was not considered essential activity in the outbreak of the new coronavirus.
Grupo Modelo operates 11 plants in Mexico, of which eight are industrial, two artisanal and one experimental. In addition, 10 are used for vertical operations (stained glass windows, malting plants, boats and small plates). The factories are in Mexico City, Zacatecas, Sinaloa, Torreón, Guadalajara, Oaxaca, Yucatán

He says the union represents about 500 workers at the Montreal brewery and a distribution centre.

EU: Up to a million of pre-paid beers waiting for consumers as soon as bars reopen
|
As bars across Europe gradually reopen, up to a million free or pre-paid beers are waiting to lure back wary consumers, WHTC News reported on June 4.
Beer makers from global giant Anheuser-Busch InBev to smaller craft brewers have set up schemes for consumers to buy drinks in advance to support shuttered bars with, in some cases, the reward of free beer when the doors reopen.
AB InBev launched its first scheme "Cafe Courage" in Belgium and has since sold over 200,000 Stella Artois, Jupiler and other brands. It also started similar schemes in 20 other markets across Europe and from Brazil to Hong Kong, raising over $6 million for pubs, bars and restaurants.
World number two Heineken put the number of drinks sold through its various voucher schemes at 270,000.
Now the bars are opening, consumers have had their first chance to redeem coupons or vouchers.
Danish friends Arendse Rohland and Thomas Hoffner Lovgren were among those to profit from free beers after bars re-opened there on May 18.
Danish brewer Carlsberg offered lagers in a bar to consumers who bought bottles or cans from stores in its "Adopt a Keg" scheme. The idea was to lure drinkers back with free drinks and hope that

India: Karnataka allows brewing fresh batches of beer for off-premise consumption
|
The Karnataka government has allowed microbreweries to brew fresh batches of beer for off-premise consumption, Livemint reported on June 2.
The order permitting fresh batches comes about a fortnight after the state excise department allowed microbreweries to sell their existing stocks in order to mitigate the losses incurred in the Covid-19 induced lockdown.
The notification states that permission is accorded to microbreweries “for fresh brewing/production and sale of beer till 30-6-2020, or until further orders, whichever is earlier."
The relaxing of restrictions is part of the B.S.Yediyurappa-led government’s plans to permit reopening of businesses and activities to help revive the economy. The state government had been particular about resuming liquor sales to help bring in some cash inflows to mitigate the acute fund crunch.
Karnataka cashed in on pent up demand after liquor sales were allowed from 4 May and since clocked ₹2146.48 crores. The excise revenue is Rs1387.20 crore, according to information by the department.
Even hotels and restaurants were allowed to sell their stock at MRP (maximum retail price).
Though microbreweries account for around Rs30 crore out of the over Rs20,000 crore fiscal target of the state excise department, they had requested to start selling beer in growlers and reopen their kitchens to bring

Mozambique: CDM’s Beira brewery forced to cut production by 40%
|
The closure of bars and of market stalls selling alcoholic drinks, under the state of emergency regulations, has forced CDM (Beers of Mozambique) in the central city of Beira to cut its production by 40 per cent, the Beira daily paper "Diario de Mocambique" reported on June 2.
CDM commercial manager Edgar Chissano told the paper that before the coronavirus pandemic, the Beira brewery was producing at full capacity.
But demand from the bars and stalls accounted for almost half the brewery's output. They have been closed down because of the fear that the crowds they attract may provide fertile grounds for the spread of Covid-19.
People can still drink alcohol in restaurants, and can buy beer to take home in shops and bottle stores. But they cannot drink in the markets and on the streets.
Despite the fall in production, CDM has promised to continue to pay its workers normally, and to ensure continuity of production. It is implementing a shift system, rotating its workers so as to ensure the social distancing that provides a measure of protection against the coronavirus.
As part of its social responsibility, CDM is also distributing 1,000 face masks. 600 were given to Beira Municipal Council, and the other

Thailand: People and organizations involved with craft beer summoned by authorities for posting photos of beer on social media
|
More than 400 people and organizations involved with the craft beer business have been summoned by regulatory authorities in Thailand for posting photos of the brew on social media, The National Herald reported on June 4.
Six craft beer associations jointly lodged a complaint with the House of Representatives’ Public Health Commission on June 4 arguing that the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act, which bars the display of alcohol for promotional purposes, is unclear and violates their right to communicate with customers.
A representative of the beer associations says violations of the act are punishable by a 50,000-500,000 baht fine ($1,580-15,800) and a one-year jail term.
The complainants say their businesses have suffered from measures to combat the spread of the coronarivrus that included a ban on the sales of alcoholic beverages, the closing of bars and a curfew. A curfew beginning at 11 p.m. is still in effect.
The associations' representative, Supapong Preunglampoo asserts the industry helps Thailand’s economic growth and said, “There are many people working in this sector struggling to survive here.”
Supapong said: “In the time of difficulties from the COVID-19 outbreak, we would like to ask Thai authorities to look at alcoholic beverages from another viewpoint, not just with health or

Thailand & Australia: Severe drought in Thailand could provide boost to Australian barley shipments
|
Severe drought in Thailand in the first five months of 2020 has adversely affected the production of off-season (dry season) rice and corn, primarily due to a lack of irrigation water as reservoirs are critically low, Grain Central reported on June 2.
This will decrease the country’s exportable surplus of rice and potentially increase demand for imported wheat and barley in the 2020/21 marketing year.
The area planted to dry-season crops fell 36 per cent to 1.4 million hectares relative to the 2018/19 crop year, after historically low precipitation during the 2019 monsoon led to record low water storage inflows late last year. Consequently, production of off-season rice and corn are forecast to decline by 41pc and 25pc respectively compared to the previous season.
Total 2019/20 rice production is forecast at 18 million tonnes (Mt), 14.8Mt in the wet-season production cycle and 3.2Mt in the dry-season window. This is the second-lowest level of production in the last ten years after a severe drought in the 2015/16 season slashed output to 15.8Mt.
Thailand’s corn production in the current marketing year is expected be around 4.5Mt, a fall of 20pc on 2018/19 levels. This was mainly due to an infestation of fall armyworm in the wet-season
