Consulting for the alcohol industry

Our consultants have many years of experience working with companies in the alcohol industry. This includes cooperation with producers and distributors of the relevant categories of alcoholic beverages (spirits, wine, other wine products, and beer) as well as producers of industrial products based on denatured alcohol.

We also provide services to companies dealing with the logistics of deliveries of alcoholic beverages – both from the EU and imported from third countries.
