Irish alcoholic drinks sector
Notes de l’épisode
Before the arrival of Trump’s tariffs, exports from the Irish alcoholic drinks sector rose by 91% between 2015 and last year. The sector employs 6000 people directly in drinks manufacturing and around 30,000 in the hospitality sector. But younger consumers are turning away from the sector and alcohol accounts for most people being treated for addictions.
A lot to discuss with Cormac Healy is the Director of Drinks Ireland.
