Out of code beer is an expensive problem for beer distributors. The huge selection of new breweries, brands and packages has been great for the beer industry, but not so great for your financial statements.
Out of code beer is a problem for beer distributors because we bear the full burden to deal with it. The stale dated product must be identified, removed from the retail account and destroyed. All the cost is on the distributor’s dime.
The key is to identify old beer before it goes bad and have a plan in place to get it sold through to the consumer while the beer is still fresh.
To help you reduce out of code beer in your company, I’ve put together the How to Reduce Out of Code Beer Guide and Online Course. The course is yours free with your paid annual subscription to Beer Business Finance.
