How to run a microbrewery business in India? Food Marketing and Technology
Starting any business (even a brewery) requires a lot of initial processes and steps to be completed before the launch of the product/service and you start discussing the Marketing strategies for Brewery.
Let's start
by understanding the Beer Industry of India.
Beer Industry of India
India is one
of the largest beer-producing countries in the world. Traditionally, the beer
started in Europe and African countries. Beer has a recorded history dating
back to the 5th millennium BC. Recorded in ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia,
dating back to about 1000 BC. The first brewery in Asia was founded in 1855 in
Kasauli, Himachal Pradesh, India under the name Dier Brewery. The company still
exists and is known as "Mohan Meakin" and today includes a large
group of companies in many industries. Mohan Meakin was listed on the Bombay
Stock Exchange from January 24, 2005, to
August 11, 2005, after being privatized. Although the Indian beer market
has matured over the years, it is still severely restricted to a limited
variety. Many international players have entered the market in recent years,
but due to high import taxes and limited availability (limited to major
cities), these companies have not been very successful so far. .. Some
international companies, such as Budweiser and Carlsberg, have established a
presence in the Indian market and are fiercely competing with domestic
breweries. In the beer market, Kingfisher has the largest share in India,
followed by Carlsberg, Budweiser, and Hayward. There are about 10 million beer
shops and about 500,000 bars and pubs in the country. Over the last five years,
the beer market has recorded 8.12% growth from 2010 to 2014.
