What do beer distribution companies do?
Beer distributors stock brands from many breweries, deliver them on regular rounds and often install and service the cooling and tap equipment in bars. Their customers are pubs, restaurants, hotels, event organisers and retailers, and in many markets breweries own or finance part of this distribution.
Our data comes from the business registers of 29 European countries. SIC has no code of its own for beer distribution companies: they sit in SIC codes 5181 (beer and ale), 5182 (wine and distilled alcoholic beverages) and 5149 (groceries and related products, not elsewhere classified), so within that we select them on the CompanyData industry label for beer and beverage wholesalers. In NACE, the European code those registers use, 744 of them (19%) sit in class 46.34 (wholesale of beverages), part of division 46 (wholesale trade, except of motor vehicles and motorcycles).
