France: Schutzenberger brewery legally closed
The Appeal Court of Colmar confirmed the legal closure of the Schutzenberger brewery in Schiltigheim, local media provided June 01. According to Court’s decision, it was improper to envisage any serious investment in equipment because it was estimated technically out of date.
Established in 1740, the Schutzenberger brewery has seen its production falling in five years from 200,000 down to 100,000 hectolitres and its annual turnover from EUR15 million to EUR10 million. It was until recently the only wholly independent Alsatian brewery along with Meteor and Hochfelden.
