4 | Indirect effects of
the brewing sector
49% of the value of the output produced remains within the
frm as value added and the other 51%( of 1.84 billion euro
in total turnover) accrues to a number of suppliers.
This stimulus of 929 million euro has a signifcant economic
impact on sectors outside the brewing sector, as can be
observed in the table below:
40% of all the indirect employment generated by
the brewing sector is within the services sector.
Other substantial effects can be observed in agriculture
and media and marketing. The total frst-round employment
effect of the brewing sector on supplying sectors is almost
3,200 employees.
As this primary effect can be estimated at about 65% of
the total impact, the total impact will be almost 4,900 jobs.
