The Boortmalt group, fully owned subsidiary of the
Epis-Centre group is amongst the top 10 industrial
malt producers in the world and number 4 in Europe

The long-standing know-how in the malting industry,
acknowledged by most of the international brewers
and other malt users is strengthened by high performance
tools. Direct links to important barley producing
areas combined with its location in a major port
for the supply of international markets make the
Boortmalt Group a reliable partner in the brewing
industry, locally, regionally & internationally.
Large storage capacities in Antwerp, some dedicated
exclusively to malt, round up the picture. |
Philippe Lehrmann,

Aside from our small activity in China that supplies
only the local market, we have a strong presence
in south-east Europe and the Balkans with our
plants in Dunaùjvàros and Nova Gradiska,
and through our export facilities at Sobelgra,
in the port of Antwerp, in Belgium, we can supply
all the major international markets from our plants
in Issoudun and Antwerp. The 520,000 tons we produce
each year in Europe, is dispatched to the European
Community, to European countries outside of the
European Community, to South and Central America,
to Africa and to Asia.

Developing in step with the market
The stable increase in beer consumption worldwide
and the changing needs of brewers, due to their
grouping together, announce a promising future for
the development of the malt business. The last two
campaigns have showed the strategic importance of
brewing barley supplies. In this regard, Boortmalt
intends to strengthen its position in its specialities:
from barley production control right through to
"customer dispatch" logistics.
Philippe Lehrmann -
Chief Commercial Officer.
" Our strategy then is to assist and supply
more high value malt to our key customers, in line
with their demands. This is achieved through our
barley sourcing abilities, state-of-the-art high-quality
producing malt plant and obviously efficient logistics
which once again give us an advantage over many
other competitors in terms of export. The export
market is the one that is expanding the most". |
