Kegstar and the Society of Independent Brewers (SIBA) have announced a three-year partnership on BeerX, the major beer and brewing trade event.
The event, set to take place on 15th and 16th March at Exhibition Centre Liverpool, is the biggest trade event in the UK for beer and brewing businesses.
Attracting more than 3,000 last year, it is attended by brewers and beer industry employees looking to expand their knowledge, discover the UK’s best independent craft beers, view the latest brewing equipment, ingredients, and services, and network with others from across the industry.
“Kegstar have helped BeerX grow into the word-class beer and brewing event it is today, and we are hugely grateful for their continued support as we look to collaborate with them as headline sponsors for the next three years,” said SIBA’s head of communications and marketing, Neil Walker.
“Container management is important in a brewer’s operation, and Kegstar work closely with breweries of all sizes to offer proven, complete outsourced keg solutions. They’ll be available throughout BeerX if you’re interested in a chat, some table tennis, or a beer!”
James Bleakley, general managerUK and Europe at Kegstar, said: “We’re delighted to continue our long-standing partnership with SIBA. BeerX provides a wonderful opportunity to reconnect, celebrate the achievements of UK breweries, and discuss the key topics and challenges facing our industry.
“It’s an exciting time for Kegstar. Now with the support of MicroStar Logistics, we’re able to focus even more on delivering what brewers truly value. We’re adding to our sustainable shared keg programmes and industry-leading quality services with the launch of our scan-free, fixed-fee solution last year, making it even simpler for brewers to work with us. Plus, we’re excited to share the many great opportunities for export across Europe, leveraging the support of our global MicroStar network.”
