4 | Indirect effects
of the brewing sector
In 2010, 38% of production value remained within the
Maltese brewing sector as value-added. The other 62%
of 47 million euro in total turnover accrued to suppliers of
goods and services.
Of this stimulus of 29.5 million euro, 11 million euro stayed
within the country. This stimulus has a signifcant economic
impact on sectors outside the brewing sector, most
substantially on the media and marketing sector :
Almost two-thirds of the indirect employment effect is
within the media and marketing sector. The services
sector also benefts substantially from the production and
sale of beer. The total frst-round employment effect of
the brewing sector on supplying sectors is estimated at
almost 280 employees.
As this primary effect can be estimated at about 65% of
the total impact, the total impact can be estimated to be
440 jobs.
