A craft brewery based in the USA that prides itself on being family-owned while also using local ingredients and resources, asked First Key for brewery operations training and coaching support; this included assistance in areas such as improving their standard operations procedures, production scheduling, quality control/quality assurance, ingredient and capacity utilization. The 5-day site visit – during which First Key technical experts worked closely with the client’s brewing operations team – was a valuable opportunity to train and assess all processes as well as define areas of opportunity. As a result of First Key’s recommendations, the client was able to double the capacity of their existing brewing facility.
