Hello,
The 3rd annual Craft Beer & Spirits Summit [1], which is taking place on September 5th at the Citywest Exhibition Centre, Dublin, will cover the latest developments within the €44 million turnover Irish craft beer industry and the blossoming craft spirits sector.
There are currently about 75 microbreweries operating in the Republic of Ireland – up from 15 in 2012 – producing over 157,000 hectolitres of beer annually. One in five microbreweries has a turnover in excess of €1 million. Craft beer consumption in Ireland is continuing to rise and currently accounts for 2.8% of the total beer market.
Furthermore, the Irish craft spirits category, encompassing whiskey, gin, vodka, brandy and poitín, is experiencing a renaissance as new distilleries spring up across the country. The white spirits sector is particularly buoyant, aided by strong new product development activity.
As an integral part of the 6th National Food & Drink Business Conference and Exhibition [2], Ireland’s premier trade event for the food and drink processing, retailing and hospitality sectors, the Craft Beer & Spirits Summit serves as an annual forum for producers seeking to improve their competitiveness and business performance to discuss issues of interest with their counterparts, while also being able to meet with suppliers of equipment, technology, and services offering possible solutions. The event also provides the opportunity to meet potential new customers and to reinforce ties with existing ones.
