India: Carlsberg to invest over Rs 400 crore in brownfield expansion of its Bengal brewery
|
Carlsberg India will invest over Rs 400 crore in Bengal for the brownfield expansion of its brewery at Dhanekhali in Hooghly. This is part of the expansion strategy of the global beer giant in India, the Times of India reported on October 8..
This comes after the company announced the signing of a MoU with the Union ministry of food processing industries at World Food India 2025
“The agreement reaffirms Carlsberg’s long-term commitment to India through proposed investments of Rs 1,250 crore across key states. The investments will significantly strengthen Carlsberg India’s brewing and packaging footprint with investments of Rs 500 crore towards a new greenfield facility in Ahilyanagar, Maharashtra, Rs 400 crore for brownfield expansion in Bengal’s Hooghly and Rs 350 crore for brownfield expansion in Mysuru, Karnataka,” the company said.
The Dhanekhali brewery has a capacity of 7.2 lakh cases per month. Sources added, the capacity is likely to be doubled.
According to the company, the projects will together generate large-scale employment opportunities and stimulate growth across its customers, suppliers and multiple service providers. Over the next three years, Carlsberg India expects incremental procurement of nearly Rs 600 crore in raw and packaging materials, directly benefiting industries such as malt production, glass,

Japan: Japan's Asahi hack that halted beer production claimed by Qilin ransomware group
|
Qilin, a ransomware group with a track record of cyberattacks on major entities around the world, claimed responsibility on October 7 for a hack on Japan's Asahi Group Holdings that disrupted production at the beer and beverage giant, Reuters reported.
Asahi Group's beer-making subsidiary, Asahi Breweries, said on October 6 it had restarted production at its six Japanese beer plants on October 2. It first said it had been hacked on September 29.
Qilin, which operates a ransomware-as-a-service platform that allows users to carry out attacks in exchange for a percentage of extortion proceeds, posted 29 images to its website on October 7 of what the group claims to be internal Asahi Group documents.
The group claims to have stolen more than 9,300 files, or roughly 27 gigabytes of data, according to the entry on its website.
Reuters could not immediately verify the authenticity of the documents.
An Asahi Group Holdings spokesperson said in an email late on October 7 that the matter was still under investigation and the company declined to comment on Qilin's claims, or any details about extortion demands or negotiations.
Qilin did not respond to a request for comment.
Qilin has been a prolific ransomware service since first emerging in 2022 with 870

Japan: Beer and quasi-beer sales shrink 2% in September
|
Beer and quasi-beer sales at four major Japanese brewers in September shrank 2 pct from a year earlier in terms of volume, down for the sixth straight month, an estimate by an industry official showed on October 10.
The estimate was made as Asahi Breweries Ltd. did not disclose its sales figures for the month, due to a system failure caused by a cyberattack that was confirmed on Sept. 29.
The pace of decline in beer and quasi-beer sales slowed from 11 pct in August thanks to a rebound in dining demand. Sales to businesses picked up for the first time in half a year.
"Fewer consumers dined out in August due to the summer heat, but the number rebounded in September," a brewery official said.
Beer sales rose 1 pct in September while sales of "happoshu" quasi-beer products and beer-like "third-segment" alcoholic beverages were down 4 pct and 7 pct, respectively.

Nigeria: Beer industry asks government to jettison introduction of tax stamp
|
Nigeria’s beer industry has requested the Federal Government to jettison the introduction of tax stamp because of its negative consequences for the economy, The Nation Newspaper reported on October 8.
It announced support for the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN)’s call for the government to rescind the proposal to introduce tax stamps.
The industry called on the Federal Government to sustain existing home-grown digital systems that deliver full visibility of excise operations.
Executive Director, Beer Sectoral Group of MAN, Abiola Laseinde said the tax stamps (digital identifiers also referred to as tack and trace systems) will be counterproductive.
She warned that the system presents operational challenges and financial risks that could undermine the fragile recovery of the manufacturing industry and the Nigerian economy.
She added in a statement that “the tax stamps system is largely inefficient, causing production slowdowns, distribution delays, product stock-outs, and high compliance costs.”
She explained that the industry is concerned that this proposal is coming at a time when operators are already “grappling with rising excise rates, foreign exchange volatility, and high inflation—making the additional burden of implementing tax stamps a serious threat to business sustainability”.
“Tax stamps are often positioned as a solution to illicit trade, would have no benefit to beer

Australia: Malting barley exports down 64% in August
|
Australia exported 494,419 tonnes of barley and 167,155t of sorghum in August, according to the latest data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics.
The barley comprises 118,399t of malting, down 64 percent from the 328,650t shipped in July, and 376,020t of feed, up 25pc from the July figure.
On feed, China on 269,292t was the biggest market by far for August shipment, followed by Japan on 96,700t, and Vietnam on 3589t.
In malting exports, China on 113,439t accounted for the vast majority of exports, followed by Vietnam on 2012t, and Singapore on 1980t.
China was also the dominant market by far for sorghum, taking 162,557t, with Taiwan on 3374t, The Philippines on 1203t, and Japan on 22t the only other destinations for August.
Compass Grain director Sam Roache said shipping stems indicated Australia’s barley exports in September would be around half the August total, ahead of the lowest carry-out on record.
“These lower exports are not demand driven, with Chinese buying remaining strong right through the August-December period,” Mr Roache said.
“Overall, Australia has remained competitive on price to China versus the other options in Ukraine, France and Canada.
“Argentina is beginning to compete with us on price today as they get closer to harvesting an improved crop

Canada, ON: Pernod Ricard upping support of its Windsor distillery
|
As Diageo plans the closure of its Crown Royal facility in Ontario, French competitor Pernod Ricard is upping support of its own Canadian distillery in Windsor, The Spirits Business reported on October 8.
Recent investments by the French firm into its Hiram Walker Distillery in Windsor, Ontario, are said to be in the region of CA$100 million (US$71.75m), with local news outlet Windsor Star reporting that a further cash injection of CA$15m (US$10.75m) is expected to be put into the site this year.
This further investment is said to be a reaffirmation of the company’s long-term local plans, according to Josh Reit, Pernod Ricard’s senior director of operations at Hiram Walker.
“This site for Pernod Ricard is extremely strategic in North America,” Reit told the Windsor Star. “We look at not only its strategic position with North American supply. We also look at its overall footprint and its capabilities.
“We have the capabilities for rum distillation, whisky distillation, vodka distillation. We also do gin. So not only its location, but its versatility.”
The distillery, which is the largest in North America, has been in continuous operation since opening in 1858. It has been owned by Pernod Ricard since 2005 and employs 450 local workers.
