We’re delighted to announce that we will be offering spaces to ten Scottish brewers and craft spirits producers to attend the London Craft Beer Festival on 18th and 19th July 2025 at the amazing venue, Magazine Greenwich, London. This is an excellent opportunity for producers to showcase their portfolio to industry professionals, trade, press and consumers alike to a variety of buyers in the London and wider UK market.

This opportunity is open to Scottish beer and spirits brands with ambition to supply the national UK and London markets across all sectors: on-trade, retail, grocery, foodservice & wholesale. Having an existing footprint with UK and Regional RTM distribution would be beneficial to maximise the opportunities on offer as well as being able to demonstrate current distribution, ROS and capacity to deliver on scale for new market opportunities.

Although only samples measure can be served during the event all suppliers are allowed to sell gift packs and bottles / cans for consumers to take away from the venue.
