Japan & USA: Sapporo Holdings planning a brewery in the US
|
Sapporo Holdings Ltd. is planning to set up a brewery in the U.S. by the end of 2024, as the top-selling Japanese beer in the American market seeks to expand its market share and cut costs, Bloomberg reported on March 11.
“I would like to have a production base on the West Coast,” Hiroyuki Nose, Sapporo Breweries’ vice president of marketing, said in an interview. “We make and import most of it from Canada and there are logistical costs. This is a challenge for us.”
The Tokyo-based beverage maker hasn’t been able to scale up beer brewing in North America - its largest overseas market, according to Nose, who’s set to become president of alcoholics drinks business Sapporo Breweries at the end of March. Sapporo may also look at acquiring a brewery or expanding its contract manufacturing in the U.S. as part of the efforts, he said, declining to share more details such as investment or the brewing capacity being planned.
Presence on American soil will not only save transportation costs for Sapporo but also allow it to better penetrate what the Brewers Association, a craft-beer trade group, says is a $116 billion U.S. beer market. The company predicts sales volume of its

South Korea: Prolonged COVID-19 pandemic brings changes in drinking practices in South Korea
|
The spread of the trend of drinking alone at home amid the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic has brought changes in drinking practices in South Korea, with more people opting to drink less but more frequently, The Korea Bizwire reported on March 11.
According to a report on the results of a survey of 2,000 adults, released jointly by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs and the Korea Agro-Fisheries & Food Trade Corp. on March 10, Koreans drank on an average of nine days per month last year.
The number of drinking days was up from 8.9 days in 2016, 8.8 days in 2017 and 2018, and 8.5 days in 2019.
In contrast, the amount of alcohol consumption per drinking session fell to 6.7 glasses last year from 6.9 a year ago.
Among the respondents, 41.4 percent chose to drink beer, followed by soju at 32.7 percent, traditional liquor at 15.1 percent and imported wine at 4.5 percent.
Compared to a year ago, the share of those who chose to drink beer and imported wine rose by 4.5 percentage points and 0.3 percentage points, respectively, while soju and traditional liquor declined by 0.2 percentage points and 5 percentage points, respectively.

New Zealand: Brewers asking for temporary cut in excise tax on keg beer
|
New Zealand’s brewers are asking for a temporary cut in excise tax on keg beer to help support struggling bars and restaurants, Stuff.co.nz reported on March 11.
The Brewers Association has asked that the Government immediately reduce the tax paid by half.
It’s the second time the association has asked for excise tax relief.
In May last year, the association campaigned unsuccessfully to get the Government to waive tax on about 50,000 litres of keg beer that were flushed away after they went stale while hospitality businesses were closing during the April national lockdown.
Dylan Firth, the association’s executive director, said: “We believe there is need for additional Government support that can be delivered in an extremely targeted way via an immediate 50 per cent reduction on excise tax for keg beer.”
Firth pointed to action taken in Britain to support hospitality businesses.
“We applaud the UK Government for their wide-ranging initiatives in the recently announced Budget, where for a second year have announced a freeze on all alcohol excise until 2021 and a significantly reduced VAT rate specifically for hospitality businesses of 5 per cent,” he said.
“We feel the impact of lockdowns and level changes here in New Zealand, specifically in the Auckland region, necessitate

USA: Cybersecurity incident disrupts Molson Coors’ beer-making operations
|
Molson Coors, the brewer behind the Miller and Coors brands, revealed a "cybersecurity incident" at the company that has disrupted its beer-making operations, CNN reported on March 10.
The Chicago-based company said in a regulatory filing on March 11 that the hack has taken its systems offline, delaying and disrupting parts of Molson Coors' operations, including its production and shipments.

UK: Marston’s CEO to step down
|
Ralph Findlay, chief executive of Marston’s, is stepping down after 20 years at the helm of the pub group, having recently seen off an unsolicited bid from the US private equity group Platinum, the Financial Times reported on March 11.
Marston’s said Findlay planned to step down at the end of the financial year in September, giving him time to oversee the reopening of pubs for both indoor and outdoor service following the current lockdown. He has led Marston’s since 2001.
Ralph “is one of the longest serving business leaders in an industry which has seen significant change and challenges during that time”, said chairman William Rucker. “He leaves Marston’s in excellent shape and well-positioned to rebuild trading and go from strength to strength when restrictions are lifted.”
Bolstered by the sale of its brewing business into a £780 mln joint venture with Carlsberg in May, Marston’s has been in a stronger position than several other pub groups as the industry has struggled to cope with lengthy closures during the crisis.
In December the group stepped in to operate 156 pubs belonging to the struggling Welsh brewer SA Brain, saving 1,300 jobs. It has faced its own difficulties however, announcing a £40m hit to

Canada: Barley export comes to stop due to high prices
|
On February 17, Statistics Canada estimated the barley acreage of 2021 at 3.190 mln ha (last year – 3.060 mln) vs. a large majority of private estimates of 3.5-3.6 mln ha. Production forecasts are 10.6 (unchanged from last year) vs. 12.5 mln tonnes forecast privately, H. M. Gauger GmbH reported earlier in March.
The combined demand of the Alberta feed and Vancouver export sector with no relief from U.S. corn imports has driven market up to more than C$300 track Lethbridge equal to US$300FOB Vancouver. At these price levels export business has come to a stop for old and even new crop barley. Farmers are expected to react strongly and expand their barley acreage by about half a million hectares.
