This price does not include transportation costs. In addition, energy costs have also risen sharply because the operation of the beer factory is very energy -dense type. The price of natural gas is directly related to our cost. "
Previously, the Brewery, which Galcia, used oil to the Danish supply product, used oil instead of natural gas energy to prevent the factory from being closed in the energy crisis.
Gale is also formulating similar measures for other factories in Europe in order to "make preparations for oil" from November 1.
Panagion also said that the price of beer cans has risen by 60%, and it is expected to rise further this month, which is mainly related to the high energy cost.

which also causes problems in the supply of domestic beer bottles in Greece. Therefore Seeking new sources, but paying higher prices.
It is reported that due to the rise in costs, beer vendors have to significantly increase the price of beer.
Market data show that the sales price of beer on the shelves of supermarkets has jumped by nearly 50%.

The chairman of the Greek winemaker association said: "If we continue to promote the same intensity as in previous years, we will have to further increase the sales price."
