4 | Indirect effects
of the brewing sector
With 49% of the value of the output produced staying within
the Portuguese brewing sector as value-added, the other
51% of 2.3 billion euro in total turnover accrues to a number
of suppliers.
This stimulus of 246 million euro has a signifcant economic
impact on sectors outside the brewing sector, most
substantially on the agriculture sector. This high impact on
the agriculture sector is due to the relatively low turnover per
employee in this sector in comparison with other sectors.
The suppliers that beneft most from brewing are the media
and marketing sectors and the packaging industry.
The total frst-round employment effect of the brewing
sector on supplying sectors is estimated to be
approximately 2,800 employees in 2010.
As this primary effect can be estimated at about 65% of
the total impact, the total impact will be almost 4,400 jobs.
