MART considering serving alcohol at stadiums - seeking public feedback on the idea
In Belarus, the Ministry of Antimonopoly Regulation and Trade has launched a poll to gauge public opinion on the sale of alcoholic beverages during sporting events. As of the poll, 59% of participants support the idea, while another 11% believe that the right to sell alcohol on the stands should be granted to the event organizer. However, the current regulations regarding alcohol sales during sporting events in Belarus are not publicly documented, and no specific information was found about these policies or public attitudes toward them.
Meanwhile, a significant development is on the horizon for the local alcohol industry. A new plant named "Vinokurnya Soyuz" is planned to be opened in Fanipol by 2026. The plant, located in the industrial zone of the city on ul. Zavodskaya, will be the first in Belarus to produce premium distillates in a full cycle using classic Scottish technology. The plant will focus on producing high-quality alcoholic beverages from grain raw materials, such as grain and malt distillates.
The production process at the "Vinokurnya Soyuz" plant will follow classic Scottish technology, ensuring the high quality of the final product. The plant will be responsible for processing raw materials, fermentation, distillation, aging in oak barrels, and bottling of the premium whiskey and gins. This production of premium whiskey is expected to be a significant development in the local alcohol industry.
Interestingly, the currently available "Belarusian" whiskey does not use locally produced distillates; it uses distillates from Scotland. With the opening of the "Vinokurnya Soyuz" plant, Belarus will have the opportunity to produce its own premium whiskey, potentially reducing dependence on imported distillates.
While the future of alcohol sales during sporting events in Belarus remains uncertain, the opening of the "Vinokurnya Soyuz" plant is a promising development for the local alcohol industry. For precise and up-to-date details on the regulations regarding alcohol sales during sporting events, one would likely need to consult Belarusian government or sports federation publications or news sources focused on Belarus.
The upcoming opening of the "Vinokurnya Soyuz" plant in Fanipol promises a significant shift in the local alcohol industry, as it will focus on producing high-quality whiskey and gins using classic Scottish technology. In contrast, the current regulations and public opinions regarding alcohol sales during sporting events in Belarus are still under discussion and not fully documented.
