THE VOICE OF BREWERS & PUBS
We are the UK's leading trade association representing pubs and breweries. Our members brew over 90% of British beer and own over 20,000 pubs.
We are the voice of pubs and brewers, offering insight and policy thinking to government, political stakeholders and media alike to help ensure that there is an in-depth understanding of both the opportunities and challenges faced by the sector and the policy solutions to bring about the optimal fiscal and policy framework that will underpin a thriving pub and brewing sector in the UK.
Membership provides access to policy expertise and specialist data relevant to the brewers and pubs that are operating in every community, indeed, in every political constituency, across the UK.
"We're here to speak up for our members, to make sure pubs and brewers running brilliant businesses in every single part of the UK are heard.
"Our pubs and breweries are a cornerstone of British heritage and we're here to make sure they're a part of our country's future."
Alongside the BBPA’s pre-existing demands for lower beer duty, long-term business rates, and a 12.5% Hospitality VAT rate, this year's manifesto also called for providing incentives and tax relief for green investments, an immediate review and holistic business impact assessment of the current packaging waste and collection reforms and more.
Our members brew 90% of the beer produced in Britain and look after 20,000 of our country's much-loved pubs. They range from family brewers and regional pub companies to international breweries and the UK's largest pub estates.
It's a diverse group, but they all have one thing in common; passion for beautifully crafted beer and warm and welcoming pubs.
