Will the VAT increase impact on your business?
Britain’s biggest brewer Heineken has announced a 4p a pint increase on the wholesale price of beer and 5p on a pint of cider. The price rise on beer, which comes into effect on Monday 11 January, adds £11 to the wholesale cost of a brewer’s barrel.
The price of a pint of beer in pubs could rise by up to 10p following the 2.5% VAT increase and a disappointing festive season. Almost half of pubs saw a drop in sales over the Christmas and New Year trading period.
Questions you might ask yourself?
Do you want to increase the sales of beer from every brewer’s barrel you purchase?
Can you really afford to keep wasting good beer during line cleaning?
Do you want to serve consistently high quality beer and retain your regulars?
Do you want to keep paying unnecessary wage bills when key staff can be better deployed?
Do you want to reduce the Health & Safety or risk as a responsible employer?
Do you want to make life easier and avoid the pressure on bar prices?
Do you want to be able to hold off the price increase and keep your customers?
