Still doesn't help the retailers who sell INTO Scotland, also coming in with only a week left to sign up is too little too late
Circularity Scotland has announced £22 million of support measures to help Scotland’s brewers, distillers, importers and drinks manufacturers prepare for the introduction of Scotland’s deposit return scheme. More here: https://t.co/MsCm85FiCn

Just an update on this, we've had three 'maybes', one 'what's that then?' and 12 'nopes' so far.
Sent out my emails today to see how many of the breweries we work with closely are signing up to the #DepositReturnScheme. So far batting 100 as all of them who have decided have decided not to. Just like that, our entire packaged business will almost totally evaporate in August

Delivering cases to America by balloon hasn't been the success we'd hoped.

A perfect encapsulation of the reality of the DRS
1/The Deposit Return Scheme, DRS, is fast approaching introduction by the Scottish government. There is next to no public awareness of how badly this would affect Scottish business, the Scottish and UK economy, and the general public.

Also yet to see much from @CAMRA_Official on this, do the Scottish branches not fear for the lack of support for independent breweries who rely as much on packaged sales as their cask? @GlasgowCAMRA?

For what is likely a small part of their overall sales total. Why should Verdant for example, rebrand all of their cans and pay these fees for their sales north of the border if it is only a small percentage of all their overall take? Choice suffers for all customers.

The costs of new packaging, new website and online store restructuring, a waste carrier licence. As a wholesaler based just south of the border, we will lose our entire packaged range for our Scottish customers, as English breweries are not likely to spend all that extra cash...

So if you were to start a new brewery in Scotland in April this year, you wouldn't be able to sell your products in cans or bottles until March 2024? But you could sell south of the border? Nevermind the exorbitant costs of the scheme, £365 a year to be a part of it, let alone...

Spending a day researching the DRS for our future business. An overcomplicated, bureaucratic nightmare that seems to have no real benefit in a country where doorstep recycling is everywhere. Plus, you can only register between 01/01 and 01/03 each year?

As if the DRS wasn't going to cause enough harm to Scotland's great independent brewing industry, this new policy to restrict alcohol advertising is another nail in the coffin. Why does the Scottish Government seem so hellbent on killing the industry?
