Beer is deeply rooted in Europe’s history and heritage. It brings people together. The #brewing sector is a major economic engine in Europe, and #brewers are a serious force for good. The new report, “The Contribution Made by #Beer to the European Economy” by Europe Economics highlights this. 🍻 Brewers are resilient and we overcome challenges. With innovation and resilience, the brewing sector continues is growing. 📈 Brewers across Europe create jobs and wealth at the heart of local communities, driving sustainable growth. Our sector supports over 2 million jobs within the EU and contributes €52 billion in value added to the EU economy.

French Wines | Vins Français - Producers are protesting and revolution is in the air. January 2024 saw widespread public protests, with winegrowers in several regions voicing their frustrations. Bordeaux vignerons are similarly challenged. Annual overproduction has been estimated at 300,000 hl (40m bottles) and a third of the region’s winemakers are facing financial difficulty. A deal was reached with the French government to help Bordeaux growers pull up roughly 10% of their vines, or 9,500 ha from a total of 108,000 ha. The Bordeaux funding package totals €57 million, with €38 million provided by the government #wine #wines #frenchwine #frenchwines #vins #vinfrançais #vinsfrançais #winebusiness #wineindustry #winemarket #vinsrouge #vinrouge #winebusiness #redwines #roséwines #rosés #bordeaux #vins #bordeauxwines https://lnkd.in/dX7jPkih

So...I write quite a bit about the power of #local and the opportunities it creates for brands and retailers. Last weekend, thanks to a 6th grade travel basketball tournament, we made a trip across the border to Wisconsin. My 15-year old daughter shared the following Instagram post on the family text chain this morning with us and had both my husband and I laughing so hard that there were tears. Then, it randomly occurred to me how perfectly this truly captures how strong local brands can drive consumer behavior. New Glarus beer is only sold in Wisconsin. There are 100s of brewers in the Chicagoland area, and yet when we cross the border, the mission to find New Glarus beer and bring it home is a requirement of any trip. It drives trips to local grocers near the state border. Ironically, my intentionally keeping distribution local, New Glarus has actually created a fascinating bulk-purchase demand that benefits their brand but also local retailers. While the approach doesn't work for everyone, it clearly works for them. PS - We did a beer run for ourselves and multiple neighbors after the tournament, going out of our way to go to the Woodman's Food Markets in Pleasant Prairie before heading home because we found over the years of random trips to the area that they have the best selection and prices. Cheese curds were also purchased... Anyone else made a special trip to a retailer in a different state JUST for a local brand? Are the Sheehans the only ones that do New Glarus beer runs? #Illinois #craftbeer #beer #Wisconsin #NewGlarus #wisconsinbeer #shoplocal #grocery #groceryretail #localbrands #cheese #independentretailers #localgrocers #Wisconsinbrands #WisconsinRetail https://lnkd.in/gczpHU9p
