The Brewdog debts: drinks & hospitality
When Brewdog failed at the beginning of March it left £550m debts split roughly equally between the brewery and the bars and retail.
The Administrators Allix have posted a long list of debtors on the Companies House site. Most will get less than a penny in the pound back
Cave (beer distributors) £66,142
Sandford Orchards (cider) £73,522
Cloudwater £15,522
Molson Coors £98,386
Heineken £7,914
H Weston (cider) £20,400
Tennents £128, 327
Vault City £ 27,724
Buxton £247
Donzoko £594
Muntons (Malt) £960,617
Given the reputational issues one wonders why Vault City and Cloudwater traded with Brewdog when I doubt they were short of potential bartops. Buxton and Donzoko can be more easily understood on that basis.
As for Heineken and Molsons, who knows. The Administrator lists but does not give details!
Could Brewdog have been done differently? My piece for Culture Matters
