Brewery news Japan: Beer sales battle intensifying in Japan
A beer sales battle is intensifying in Japan, with major makers switching their targets from restaurants to people who drink at home as demand for drinking parties and holiday outings remains sluggish amid the prolonged novel coronavirus crisis, Jiji Press reported on March 28.

Beer prices dropped following a liquor tax revision in October 2020. Sales of canned beer are growing thanks to a shift from so-called third-segment quasi-beer, for which the tax rate was raised, and robust home-related demand amid the pandemic.

In February, Asahi Breweries Ltd. fully renewed its Super Dry beer for the first time since its launch in 1987 although some in the firm had been cautious about the revamp of the flagship product, which has numerous fans.

Earlier this month, Asahi Breweries set up a special sales area for the renewed product at an Ito-Yokado supermarket in Tokyo's Ota Ward. Super Dry sales at the shop in early March jumped around 50 pct from a year before.

Kirin Brewery Co. recently renewed its Spring Valley Hojun 496 craft beer, released only last year. The company sees the move as an "opportunity for regrowth evolving around canned products," Kirin Brewery President Hideki Horiguchi said.


Brewery news Nigeria: Beer sector contributed $2.2 bln to Nigerian economy in 2019
The Worldwide Brewing Alliance’s new report on the global economic impact of the beer sector has shown that the sector contributed $2.2 bln to the Nigerian economy in 2019, the Punch Newspapers reported on March 28.

During a webinar, the Worldwide Brewing Alliance said the report, which was produced by Oxford Economics, showed the impact of the sector on different economies.

According to the report, the global beer sector contributes to Nigeria’s economy through its domestic and international operations, as well as the worldwide supply chain.

It stated that “The global beer sector supported a $2.2 bln gross value-added contribution to Nigeria’s Gross Domestic Product in 2019. This was equivalent to 0.6 per cent of national GDP, or 73 per cent of Zaria’s economy.”

It stated that the global beer sector sustained over 309,000 jobs in Nigeria in 2019.

This was equivalent to 0.4 per cent of national employment, or 81 per cent of employment in Aba, the report added.

It stated that the global beer sector supported $526 mln in tax revenues in Nigeria in 2019, which was 1.7 per cent of government revenue.

The report said the production and consumption of beer had reached all parts of the global economy.

For the first time, the report ...More info on site


Brewery news Australia: Brewers Association disappointed by government not cutting draught beer tax in new budget
Commenting on Australia’s newly announced Federal Budget, John Preston, CEO of the Brewers Association, said:

“We’re extremely disappointed that the Federal Government has not cut draught beer tax in the Budget.

“Australia has the 4th highest beer tax rate in the world and in refusing to address this the Government has ignored calls from pubs, clubs and Australia’s 11 million beer drinkers. The Government has endorsed its continued twice yearly beer tax increases which will mean that next year Australians will be paying the third highest beer taxes in the world.

“This is not sustainable for pubs and clubs. It’s also not fair for everyone who enjoys the great Australian pastime of a having a beer with their friends at their local.

“99 per cent of draught beer consumed in Australia is brewed here. The Australian beer industry supports over 100,000 jobs through its supply chain – from barley and hops production, great manufacturing jobs, and people employed in pubs and clubs throughout Australia.

“We will continue the campaign for a draught beer tax cut and will be seeking a commitment from both the Coalition and Labor at the upcoming Federal Election.


Brewery news South Korea: HiteJinro to beef up marketing policy for its popular beer product Terra
South Korea’s multinational brewer and distiller HiteJinro is set to beef up the marketing policy for its popular beer product Terra this year, targeting both the household market and entertainment venues, The Korea Times reported.

In February, HiteJinro introduced a bottle opener called "Spooner" specially designed for Terra beer bottles.

The distiller's top engineers spent three years developing Spooner, with the goal of bringing entertainment to people at drinking parties.

HiteJinro released a commercial in the form of a mockumentary video starring young physicist Kim Sang-wook, who explains how Spooner works.

The company has applied for a trademark for the bottle opener.

The device will be used as a promotional tool for Terra across the country.

HiteJinro has also introduced Terra in two new sizes ― 400 millilitres and 463 millilitres ― that are considered ideal for home drinkers.

Since the start of the pandemic, an increasing number of Koreans have taken to drinking at home, a practice less prevalent in drinking culture here than in the West, and the distiller reflected such demand by introducing smaller sizes of Terra.

HiteJinro offers five different sizes of its popular beer products, which can be purchased at large supermarkets and local grocery stores.

HiteJinro has been making great efforts in the ...More info on site


Brewery news Nigeria: Guinness Nigeria share price increases resulting in N2.63 bln gain in market capitalization
At the end of the trading session on March 29, Guinness Nigeria Plc share price appreciated by 1.71% to close at N71.20 per share, taking the market capitalization to N155.96 billion, the Nairametrics reported.

The growth in share prices which was recorded by the FMCGs company can be attributed to investors’ positive sentiment which triggered buy-interests supporting the company’s value up by 171 basis points.

Hence, the rally in the shares of the company resulted in a gain of N2.63 billion in market capitalization at the close of trading activities on Nigeria’s stock exchange.

The shares of the quoted brewery increased from N70.00 per share at the start of the trading day to N71.20 per share, the highest price traded at the close of the market, to represent a growth of 1.71% which in monetary terms is N1.20.


Brewery news UK: Adnams warns of further beer price hikes due to situation in Ukraine
Suffolk-based brewer Adnams has warned that the price of beer is set rise even further due to the situation in Ukraine significantly reducing the supply of barley, The Drinks Business reported on March 29.

Fergus Fitzgerald, the production director based in Southwold, has been with the company for 18 years, and told The Telegraph that the situation would be difficult “for some time”.

Although Adnams sources all of their barley from the UK, the global shortage is raising costs. The Russian invasion of Ukraine has worsened a situation already made dire by droughts in US centres of barley cultivation last Summer. Though the East Anglian brewery has sufficient barley for the moment, Fitzgerald warned: “when it comes to that next supply, that’s when we will start to see price increases”, pointing to the price of barley currently being 30% higher than it was a year ago.

The dramatic increase in the price of the vital beer ingredient has come at the same time as rising energy and packaging costs. Although there won’t be an immediate increase in the price of your Mosaic Pale Ale or Ghost Ship, Fitzgerald forecasts that in the third or fourth quarter, “we’ll see more of this coming through, ...More info on site

Whisky news India: United Spirits extends deadline for ‘strategic review’ of its liquor brands till May 31
Diageo-controlled United Spirits Ltd (USL) on March 29 said it has extended the deadline to complete the "strategic review" of its select popular liquor brands till May 31, 2022, ETRetail.com reported.

The company had earlier set the deadline of March 31, 2022 to complete the review process.

"The strategic review of selected popular brands initiated by the company on February 23, 2021 to consider all options to deliver sustainable long-term profitable growth is ongoing. The review is expected to be completed by May 31, 2022," USL said in a regulatory filing.
