Burton key to future growth says brewing plan
BURTON will form a major part of a bid to ensure that the beer and pub industry continues to thrive until 2020, according to a new report.
The British Beer & Pub Association (BBPA) has set out its priorities to ensure that both industries ‘grow and prosper’ during the next six years.
