      Niehoffs-Vaihinger uses returnables out of conviction

      Niehoffs-Vaihinger Fruchtsaft GmbH remains unperturbed by the ongoing plastics debate: the company fills more than 80 per cent of its production volume in returnable glass bottles – this is a matter of principle, as Plant Manager Dr. Rainer Kressmann emphasises: “Deep down in our hearts, we’re a returnables company.” His colleague, Marketing Manager Sven Frisch, even goes one step further, by vigorously affirming: “We want nothing to do with plastic!”

      Pepsi Bottling Ventures is bringing water to life

      Pepsi Bottling Ventures (PBV) is the largest privately held bottler of PepsiCo products in North America. It is a joint venture owned by PepsiCo and Suntory. As Sabri Kundakcioglu, Vice President of Engineering, explains, the company’s membership in the Japanese Suntory Group means that it also follows the group’s philosophy: “Our corporate vision statement is ‘Mizu To Ikiru’, which literally translates to ‘bringing water to life’. It is meant to remind us that water is the source of all life on Earth. Water is also the most essential ingredient in all of our products, and therefore crucial to a successful, sustainable business.”

      Rapid success for Skol

      Skol is one of the world’s biggest beer brands, and is produced and sold by various brewing conglomerates. In some countries of Africa, the Belgian family firm Unibra owns the brewing and marketing rights. When the demand for beer in Rwanda rose a few years ago, Unibra decided in 2010 to produce the purely malt-based beer locally too – and built a new brewing facility for the purpose: Skol Brewery Ltd. (SBL). And the decision itself, as well as the choice of what until then was an unknown type of beer in this country, turned out to be absolutely right: Skol Malt, the first beer ever on the Rwandan market to be brewed solely with malt, was a big hit, “although back then not a soul in Rwanda was familiar with the Skol brand,” explains Eustache Mpiko, Engineering Manager at SBL.

      Fast-tracked project at Kenya Breweries

      Right from the start, this project, internally code-named “Nafasi” (which translates as “opportunity”), involved a tremendous amount of work both for Kenya Breweries Ltd. (KBL) and for Krones as the turnkey vendor for the entire process technology. In order to coordinate the various job sections against a tight time schedule, more than 1.7 million working hours have been performed to date; at peak times, there were 840 workers on days and 50 working at night, 250 of them from Krones and its sub suppliers alone.

      Brewing capacities at Kursk quadrupled

      When a major international beer company closed its brewery in Kursk, Russia, around ten years ago, it created a sort of beer vacuum in the region. Then, in 2012, Oleg Nosov and his business partner Grigory Davidenko decided to open their own brewery: the Kursk Beer Company Ltd. They brought many years of experience in beer distribution to the table and knew the industry inside and out. They decided to buy empty premises in Kursk and start building their first brewing plant. And now, just five years later, they built a second brewery.
