Beer Business Value Chain™
A business simulation that helps participants understand how operational, commercial and financial decisions interact across the entire value chain.
Have you ever noticed how decisions made in one part of the business often create unexpected consequences somewhere else? A pricing decision affects demand, demand affects production, production affects inventory, inventory affects cash flow, and ultimately every decision influences business performance.
Beer Business Value Chain™ is an immersive board-based business simulation that allows participants to run a beer manufacturing and distribution business in a realistic competitive market. The simulation helps participants develop a broader business perspective and understand how operational, commercial and financial decisions combine to create—or destroy—value.
