Heineken Romania To End Malt Production To Cut Costs

Following the move the company will lay off 61 of its 1,300 employees but the suspension of malt production will not affect the brewing process, Heineken Romania said in a statement.

The company will get malt directly from suppliers because this option is less costly. Heineken Romania currently produces malt at three of its five breweries. Its portfolio consists of Heineken, Ciuc, Golden Brau, Bucegi, Gösser and some regional brands.
