Yesterday Drinks Ireland | Cider published its flagship report on the Irish cider market.

The report outlines how in 2023, the Irish cider industry experienced modest growth in the face of challenging domestic and export conditions.

Full report here https://t.co/tqoQ8ynLuS

[Drinks Ireland | Beer @DrinksIrlBeer]

In recently published Eurostat findings, Ireland is now the joint fourth largest exporter of beer in the EU in 2023. This comes as no surprise as the sector is a driving force of economic activity throughout the island of Ireland.

DRS go live day is here! ♻️

Drinks Ireland, the Irish Beverage Council & Retail Ireland have worked hard to support members in preparations for DRS which will deliver significant environmental benefits. This project represents a major change for businesses & consumers.

[Ibec @ibec_irl]

Our CEO, Danny McCoy, joined Petula Martyn on RTE @morningireland to state that while recent Government labour policies are not without merit, the introduction of these measures without a plan risks the viability of many small businesses.

Our new @ibec_irl economic outlook is out this morning (link in next tweet). The Irish economic performance over the past four years has been exceptional, but there is now a slowdown underway.

Excellent explainer on the upcoming DRS scheme for the Republic of Ireland which goes live on 1 February 2024

[Adam Maguire @AdamMaguire]

The Deposit Return Scheme kicks off in less than two months.

It might not sound like anything important, but it's going to upend your recycling (and possible even shopping) habits.

Today's report shows a resilient wine category, one with conscious and mindful consumers who relish in the substantial choice of high quality products the category has to offer. It is disappointing that Irish consumers continue to pay disproportionally high levels of excise 🍷

[Drinks Ireland @DrinksIreland]

Wine sales are down almost 3% on pre-pandemic levels. We are calling for a 15% decrease on alcohol excise duty over the next two budgets, easing the burden on hard pressed consumers & businesses-moving us closer to EU norms. Read more https://t.co/X6j3lbifnB

I was delighted to support this super report. Growth in the craft beer & cider categories brings great choice for consumers & exciting innovations.

These businesses, spread throughout the country, are important local employers & spur economic activity in their locality.
