In spite of the lingering market decline the number of producers has risen considerably since 2008. When taking “the censes” of operating enterprises we reckoned 471 of them – from brewing giants to restaurant breweries. In 2011 the number of operating enterprises equaled 561.
Analysing the number of suspended and put into operation enterprises broken by their type, one can note that since 2008 there has not appeared a single big enterprise, but one big brewery of AB InBev in Leningrad region has been suspended. The structure of enter medium size enterprises has remained stable under our data only “Ostankinskiy” brewery stopped beer production.
At the same time, there is a serious structure change beyond the relatively stable number of industrial minibreweries and microbreweies. Under our estimation about 100 producers stopped operation but practically the same number of new industrial manufactures started working. Broken down by the geographical factor the negative dynamics is most evident in the Volga region where during the recession period 10 enterprises stopped operating as well as the growth in South region where 13 new small producers appeared.
In the segment of restaurant breweries explosive growth took place. Thus, under our calculation their number doubled within the period from 2008 to 2011. New establishments with a brewery of their own are being opened all over Russia.
It should also be noted that when we analyzed brewing equipment import (“Beer Business” 4-2011), about 140 equipment units sold since 2008 were not taken into consideration. It is particularly difficult to identify numerous buyers of Chinese or Slovakian production and supplies to eastern regions of the country as well as the supplies of entrepreneurs brewers (especially if these three categories overlap). But most of purchased breweries were apparently put into operation. Besides, we did not have data on supplies of Russian equipment producers.
So, the actual number of operating in 2011 beer producers is probably more than 600, but not more than 1000.
