7 | Total value added due to beer
The contribution of the brewing sector to the Dutch
economy can also be expressed in terms of value-added.
The total value-added generated by these 77,100 jobs is
estimated at 2.8 billion euro :
The brewing sector share of overall value-added arising
from beer production and sales is 26%, which is far higher
than the brewing sector share in total employment arising
from beer, which is 9%. An explanation for this is the high
productivity of the employees in the Dutch brewing sector.
