The core issue Unifine Richardson (UR) faces is their sole honey supplier, Harrington Honey (HH), will run out of Chinese honey in a little over a month because the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) recently found traces of chloramphenicol (a banned antibiotic associated with causing a sometimes-fatal blood disorder) and rejected the contaminated honey. Until China finds a way to detect contaminated honey, Unifine Richardson cannot sell any of its current Chinese-Canadian blend. Because of the CFIA’s findings, the global supply of honey will decrease by 20%, thus causing an increase in price. Harrington Honey will not be able to maintain the honey stream.

Moonlight Meadery, LLC (the Company), a winery located in Londonderry, New Hampshire, manufactures mead from distilled honey. Michael Fairbrother founded Moonlight Meadery in 1995. Fairbrother started the company “…with a mission to bring ultra-premium meads to the market” (Moonlight Meadery, 2014. para. 2). Mead is a honey-based wine, and it is one the oldest known fermented beverages (National Honey Board, n.d.). Brewers create mead by fermenting honey, water, and yeast with various fruits and spices. The Company currently ships to 32 distributors within the United States, and it exports to a distributor, Calibre Craft Beer Trading Co., in Australia.

In 2004, it removed price incentives to drink larger measures of spirits and reduced the amount of alcohol in its cocktail pitchers. This has had an adverse effect on the sales of spirits and cocktails. This is due to the weak marketing skills in the company.

To begin this commodity chain analysis, general searches on honey were done to gather basic information, such as the history of honey and its basic uses. This lead to websites of main honey organizations such the Canadian Honey Council, the National Honey Board, the Ontario Beekeepers association, and Government of Canada websites, such as Statistics Canada, Industry Canada, and Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). Research was also done on websites of main honey manufacturers and distributors in Canada, such as Billy Bee and BeeMaid. All of the websites mentioned provided the majority of information needed to complete this commodity chain analysis.

Humans have been trying to get a buzz for centuries. Molecular archeologist Patrick McGovern believes fermentation of yeast was discovered nearly 9,000 years ago after he uncovered chemical traces of a fermented beverage found seeped into the porous clay of ancient pottery. It is safe to say that the brewing industry is as old as civilization itself and over time humans have been able to be creative with the process and produce variations of beer recipes. Drinking a beer can be defined as an experience involving the presentation of its storage along with the beverage itself. Consumers can appreciate both the artist of the individualized concoction of the beer and the artist of its container or vessel. These two components of the

In the start of 2012 the company thought to change the original recipe a bit with the alcohol amount to be reduced to the 4.6% but the plan backfired and the organisation

Alewives and brewers were peasants who had special jobs in addition to the agricultural work they did on the manor. Ale was a highly popular medieval drink that was brewed from barley or other grains. There was a step by step procedure in making ale (Singman 153). First, the seeds were heated and roasted, in a process called malting (Singman 53). This allowed the seeds to convert into soluble starches, adding flavor to the ale (Singman 53). It was then ground, boiled in water to extract its contents, and strained to remove the solid (Singman 53). Herbal flavorings were added to give more flavor and the liquid was then fermented with yeast (Singman 53). After a batch was ready, an alewife displayed a sign telling peasants the ale was ready

This will affect the Ben & Jerry’s business immensely for you guys are known for your delectable flavours of peaches and strawberry and silked milk deliciousness, however without the population of honey bee these fruit will lack in abduncacy and the animal that harvest the

Triple Crossing is a local brewery in Richmond that was established around two years ago. After making a small location in the Foushee area, we are now opening another location that will be almost twice as big. With about just six workers, we have decided to analyze the company and see what we can do to make it better for both locations. The internal and external environments are analyzed below with strategic ideas shown also on how to make both locations better.

According to a case study cited by Staudt and Stranz (2009), Ocean Spray Cranberries, Inc is an agricultural cooperative owned by more than 750 cranberry growers in the United States and Canada. The company produces canned and bottled juice, juice drinks and food products at distribution centers in Bordentown, New Jersey; Kenosha, Wisconsin; Sulphur Springs, Texas; and Henderson, Nevada. August is usually a challenging month for Ocean Spray Cranberries, Inc., when the Lakeville, Massachusetts-based firm has to pump up volume to meet the surge in demand for upcoming holiday season. Ocean Spray was managing its transportation operations internally, but the company decided that focusing on its core competency would allow them

Added complexity is also evident when more than one factory is required to supply the whole market area, such as two factories in Sumatera are required to supply the whole market area on Sumatera Island. This makes it more complex as it thereby requires the factories to evenly allocate their finished products to satisfy the demand of consumers, where inventory levels should be kept even and not overflowing in an excess of stock.

Russia and India are the two top leading producers of honey in the world. These countries line in the continent of Asia. These regions are in Eastern part of the world map.The regions where Russia and India lie are rich in grassy lands and are blessed with a variety of plantations.The production of honey is also aided by the climate.

My favorite hobby is micro brewing beer. I have been producing craft beer for five years now. Half of my two –car garage is in reality, a kitchen with dozens of pots, pan, tanks, fermentation chambers and burners, all sorts of wicked machinery staged about the place to produce fermented beverages. I recently read in some beer journals that cider is making a comeback in the craft brewing market. The idea of producing this sweet drink motivated me to try my own recipe. After all, how could I go wrong since I had the experience brewing beer? So I decided, without much experience, to give it a shot.
