What were the challenges for your business in 2021?
The year 2021, following the year 2020 of confinement, saw the gradual resumption of on-site professional training (after a year of video training!) And the continuation of the Bières et Mets magazine.
The first challenge was to adapt to the demand of breweries and catering professionals, two categories of professionals impacted in very different ways during the previous months.
The second big challenge was to continue the print edition of my Bières & Mets magazine after a long period of total absence from festivals – my business model was mainly based on these festivals. It is both a high-end collectible print journal and an online journal. The two versions are complementary.
The challenge for 2021 is the development of subscribers and places of broadcasting. Ambassador places: breweries, bars, hotels and restaurants, cellars and delicatessens, bookstores, and places dedicated to brewing workshops.

The year 2022 will be the year of 2 new books on beer:

In addition, Special Beer & Food “regions here and elsewhere” are planned. The first will be dedicated to the Bourgogne Franche Comté region as part of the bicentenary of the birth of Louis Pasteur.
These publications anchor the Bières & Mets magazine even more in the promotion of territories, trades and know-how, and brewing and culinary tourism.
