Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>National Breweries (Natbrew), a unit of Delta Corporation, recorded a 16 per cent decline in its volumes in the year to March 2022, leading to an 18 per cent revenue contraction.<\/p>\n

According to The Herald, Natbrew produces, packages and markets traditional sorghum beer products in Zambia. Popular variants of its opaque beer are Chibuku Shake-Shake and Chibuku Super. The company said in a statement accompanying the results:<\/p>\n

Volume performance in the current year was affected by the decline of informal exports of Chibuku Super, the increase in excise and general product prices and Covid-19 restrictions which affected product availability in the market.<\/p>\n

Natbrew said it will continue to intensify efforts to drive volume growth by offering quality and competitively priced products to its consumers.<\/p>\n

In the period under review, the company\u2019s revenue declined from US$16.76 million in 2020 to US$13.55 million in 2021.<\/p>\n

The decline was attributed to the increased raw material prices in the second half of the year, limited access to the market as a result of COVID-19-induced lockdowns and the resurgence of competition from other bulk beer offerings that do not comply with excise\/VAT.<\/p>\n

The company ended the year with an operational loss of US$5 million, compared to US$9.8 million the previous year. Similarly, the company reported a loss after tax of US$7 million and a loss per share of US$0.11, compared to US$11.29 million and US$0.11 the previous year.<\/p>\n
