THE MALT VALUE CHAIN

PARTNERING

WITH FARMERS

1 . Our agronomy teams anticipate climate

impacts by developing the most suitable

barley varieties for each region , collaborating

with breeding partners to build long - term

resilience together .

2 . We partner with and upskill farmers years in

advance of establishing malthouses in new

locations to ensure local procurement .

3 .

We support crop production , soil management and

the supply of agricultural inputs that determine

grain quality .

4 . Once harvested , grains are stored and transported

to our malthouses .

CRAFTING

QUALITY MALT

5 . Grains are steeped , germinated and kilned under

controlled conditions to produce malt with the

required enzymatic and f lavour characteristics .

By integrating artif icial intelligence and advanced

digital tools , we enhance water and energy

eff iciency and minimise waste .

6 .

Malt is transported to customers . As more than

90 % of our barley is sourced in the same

country where it is malted , transportation

distances are limited , helping to minimise

carbon emissions .

PROVIDING INNOVATIVE

SOLUTIONS TO CUSTOMERS

7 . Customers , including craft brewers , large -

scale beverage producers , distillers and food

manufacturers , use our malt as an ingredient in

their products .

8 . Products move through logistics , packaging and

distribution until they reach the hands of consumers

who savour the f inal result .

From field to first taste

From farming to f inal delivery , each stage of the malt value chain is interconnected and creates value through

collaboration , responsible sourcing and continuous improvement in product quality and sustainability .
