Brewery news Latvia: Carlsberg’s Aldaris brewery sees exports increase 58% in H1 2020
Latvia’s Aldaris brewery in the first half of this year saw its exports climb 58 percent from the respective period last year, LETA reported on August 4 citing Edgars Berzins, the logistics director of Carlsberg Baltic which owns Aldaris.

He said that before the Covid-19 pandemic, the company made a strategic decision to strengthen its positions in the existing markets, for example, in the UK. Even though restaurants and bars in the UK were closed during the pandemic, sales in stores increased.

At the same time, Berzins said that Aldaris' turnover slightly decreased in the first half of this year compared to 2019 because the increase in off-trade segment (stores, kiosks, alcohol stores, etc.) could not compensate for decline in on-trade segment (bars, restaurants, clubs, hotels, etc.).

Nevertheless, sales in June and July were positive and viewed with cautious optimism. If the global situation does not deteriorate, the turnover for this year could be similar to last year's results.

In 2019, Aldaris generated EUR 25.882 million in turnover, down 4.4 percent from a year ago, while loss increased 2.8 times to EUR 3.303 million.

Aldaris is part of the Danish beer giant Carlsberg. The Latvian brewery employs approximately 190 people. Aldaris’ portfolio comprises around 40 ...More info on site


Brewery news Japan & South Korea: Japanese brands from beer to clothes walloped by boycott by South Korean consumers
Japanese brands from beer to clothes were walloped by a boycott by South Korean consumers last year - but tech names stood out for their resilience, according to data assessing the effects, the Nikkei Asian Review reported on August 2.

The boycott was sparked a year ago when Japan's government imposed curbs on exports of chipmaking materials needed by South Korean semiconductor producers such as Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. Although Tokyo says the restriction was prompted by concerns over South Korea's own export restrictions, some see the move as related to South Korean court rulings that allow assets of Japanese companies to be seized and used to compensate Korean victims of World War II-era forced labour.

Tokyo's action sparked a strong response by South Korean consumers, who began to shun Japanese products -- in some cases with severe financial effects.

According to Seoul-based research company CEO Score, the combined operating profits of 31 Japanese consumer companies in their South Korean businesses plunged 71.3% to 145.9 billion won ($121 million) in 2019, compared with the previous year.

The companies' combined revenue fell by 6.9% to 7.9 trillion won during the same period.

The biggest impact has been on companies with products more easily substituted - ...More info on site

Barley news Australia & India: India’s increasing beer consumption good news for Australian barley
An increase in the consumption of beer by a more affluent population in India is part of what makes the country an attractive alternative market for Australian malt barley, the Farm Weekly reported on August 2.

In 2017 and 2018 India produced about 3.2 billion litres of beer per year, making up about 25 per cent of the alcohol industry.

The population of the country is about 1.7 billion people in India, but only just over 200 million of those can afford to drink beer and of that 200 mln, there are only 22 mln who can afford to drink premium beer.

Speaking via video link at the Grain Industry Association of Western Australia's (GIWA) 2020 Barley Forum on August 3, Australian Export Grains Innovation Centre (AEGIC) barley technical manager Mary Raynes said there were more than 140 beer brands in India.

"Each State pretty much has its own brewery, primarily because out of the 25 States and seven Territories, they're all individually governed.

"Beer is highly taxed and with COVID-19 the tax on beer imports and exports went up around 25pc.

"The beer in India is marked as a strong beer, meaning it's higher in alcohol content, about six to eight per cent and it ...More info on site


Barley news UK: Early spring malting barley showing good yields and quality in southern England
Early spring malting barley crops are showing good yields and quality across southern England, helped by April and May rainfall, while other crops into East Anglia have suffered from the drought, Farmers Weekly reported on August 4.

Crops on the chalklands of Hampshire, Dorset and Wiltshire are showing promising harvesting results, although those further east suffered in the bone-dry May and yields and quality are down on last year.

Some early crops south of the M4 motorway showed yields of 7-8.5 t/ha, and many have low nitrogen contents of 1.35-1.55%, which the maltsters prefer. East Anglia was braced for lower yields and higher nitrogens.

One of the early-harvested crops was in Dorset, where farm manager Martin Ford has just finished cutting 140ha of the variety Propino, yielding 8.2t/a with a respectable specific weight.

“We are very pleased with the Propino – it did well through the drought and seems to like our light chalky soils,” he says.

The nitrogen content is not yet known, but he is hopeful of good quality after 180 ha of the old winter malting variety Maris Otter yielded 6.8 t/ha at a low nitrogen content of 1.35-1.45%.

Most maltsters look for a nitrogen content below 1.65% for distilling and specialist beers, ...More info on site

Whisky news World: Beam Suntory sees net sales decline in January-June this year
Maker’s Mark owner Beam Suntory saw net sales decline 3% in the first six months of 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic, The Spirits Business reported on July 31.

From January to June 2020, Beam Suntory’s net sales in the US fell 3% as a result of “significantly lower” revenue due to the closure of the on-trade, which was offset by a boost in the off-trade.

“While our sales were substantially below our expectations at the start of the year, the people of Beam Suntory rose to the challenge and fuelled stronger momentum than we expected at the onset of the pandemic,” said Albert Baladi, president and CEO of Beam Suntory.

“Our teams demonstrated impressive agility to pivot in many important ways – to redirect resources to fast-growing channels such as off-premise and e-commerce, to meet consumers in the new ‘home premise’ and to support restaurants and bars through new revenue streams like cocktails to-go.”

The firm took a big hit in markets such as Spain, India and global travel retail, which were “severely” affected by the pandemic, resulting in double-digit losses.

However, the company recorded a low-single-digit sales increase in Japan, Germany, the UK and Russia, while Canada grew by double digits.
