Killarney brewing company collapse: covid cost overruns and whiskey tariffs blamed
The Killarney Brewing and Distilling Company which went into liquidation this week had dozens of creditors when it entered the examinership process in April, with more than €8m owed. The company confirmed the unsuccessful conclusion of its examinership process on Tuesday, with more than 50 jobs impacted by the brewery ceasing operations. The company premises included the plush multi-million euro brewery, whiskey distillery, and visitor centre overlooking the lakes of Killarney in Fossa. The independent expert's report filed as part of a petition to the High Court in April showed Killarney Brewing Company had a creditors' listing topping €8m. Included in the list of creditors of the brewing company were Kerry County Council, which was owed an outstanding amount of just over €108,000, and the Revenue Commissioners, who were owed €143,400. The report said the financial difficulties of the company predominantly arose from delays and the significant overspend on the construction of the company's Fossa facility, which went through an extensive renovation in 2021 and 2024, which it said impacted the company's profitability and cash flow. The estimated cost overrun caused by pandemic-related issues was around €8m, the report said The Killarney Brewing and Distilling company in Fossa, Killarney County Kerry where a liquidator was appointed on Monday. Picture: Don MacMonagle 'As all the hospitality businesses were predominantly closed during the peak pandemic years and completion of the Fossa unit was delayed, significant trading losses were incurred as investment monies raised, which were forecasted to assist with early years working capital, were utilised on the construction-related overspend,' the report said. To address the significant construction overrun costs and aid working capital, the group borrowed around €4.4m from a number of sources in December 2022, the report also noted. Speaking this week, the company said high tariffs on Irish whiskey exports to the US and wider economic uncertainty further hurt the business and had compounded previous challenges arising from the pandemic and ongoing global tensions. The Killarney Brewing and Distilling company in Fossa, Killarney County Kerry where a liquidator was appointed on Monday. "Like many in the drinks manufacturing industry, KBD has faced significant and sustained challenges in recent years, stemming from the lasting effects of the pandemic, delays in opening our state-of-the-art distillery in Fossa, global supply chain disruptions, rising input costs, and ongoing geopolitical and trading pressures," the brewery said. "More recently, high tariffs on Irish whiskey exports to the US and wider economic uncertainty have further impacted the business." Earlier this year, the company had reached a preliminary agreement to merge with a US-based strategic partner, but the partner ultimately chose not to proceed. In response, KBD entered the examinership process in the hope of securing new investment to protect jobs and stabilise operations for the long term. A spokesperson for the liquidator declined to comment. Read More Killarney Brewing & Distilling confirms unsuccessful end of examinership process

Russian-owned alumina refinery in Limerick suspended from energy market
MINISTER FOR ENTERPRISE Peter Burke has said that the government is working 'very closely' with a Russian-owned alumina refinery in Co Limerick following its suspension from the energy market. Aughinish Alumina is Europe's largest alumina refinery and employs 450 people on its 222-hectare site, located close to the Shannon-estuary towns of Foynes and Askeaton. It is owned by Russian metals company Rusal. Eirgrid has confirmed that the company has been suspended from the ex-ante energy market - which provides day-ahead and intraday markets for the buying and selling of wholesale electricity by generators, supply companies and traders. 'Aughinish Alumina have not been taken offline and remain connected to the transmission system,' a spokesperson for Eirgrid said. 'EirGrid can confirm that Aughinish Alumina have been suspended from the ex-ante market in line with a decision by ECC (European Commodity Clearing). EirGrid are currently reviewing the implications of this development.' Speaking to reporters today, the Enterprise Minister said the decision was taken in a sovereign court in Italy. Peter Burke said his department, the Department of Energy, Eirgrid and the Commission for Regulation of Utilities (CRU) are engaging with the company to 'try and find a pathway for the company'. 'They're a very significant employer, and one that we are committed to working very closely with,' he said. 'Obviously, there are sanctions that we have to adhere to in relation to the ownership structure, as well as its participation now subject to that case in the energy market.' Asked if jobs were under threat at the plant, Burke said: 'We're working with the company, and that's the key thing. Advertisement Aerial view of Aughinish Alumina refinery on the Shannon, Co Limerick. Alamy Stock Photo Alamy Stock Photo 'We need to ensure that there is a pathway. It's a very significant company. It's a heavily export-oriented company from the Irish market, and obviously supplies a significant amount of power brought into the grid and in terms of its utilisation.' Burke said he understands that the company is still fully operational, but that 'they are in discussion with Eirgrid and the CRU to find a pathway'. While the Aughinish Alumina plant has no direct link to Russia's military invasion of Ukraine, it is owned by Russian metals company Rusal, which was co-founded by Oleg Deripaska. Deripaska, who is still a shareholder in Rusal, is an industrialist who is reported to have had close ties to Russia president Vladimir Putin. In 2018, he was placed on a US sanctions list and the UK government also announced sanctions against the oligarch in 2022 following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The businessman is well-connected in Russian politics and business, and was pictured earlier this month at the Kremlin in Moscow for a ceremony ahead of World War II commemorations. According to reports, pre-tax losses at Aughinish Alumina in 2023 totalled €108 million, down from losses of €141 million the previous year. Earlier this month, a bomb was discovered attached to a fuel tank that services the refinery . The bomb is believed to have included a battery-timed mechanism so that it could be detonated long after the perpetrators had left the area. It's understood that up to 100 staff at the refinery were unable to leave the plant while a 350-metre security cordon was in place at the scene for several hours. The area where the bomb was found is located close to a publicly accessible nature walking trail. Gardaí investigating the incident are examining many lines of enquiry, including the possibility that the bomb may have been a direct response to Russian missile attacks in Kyiv carried out at the time. In February 2022 Gardaí launched an investigation into criminal damage at the entrance to Aughinish Alumina which was daubed with slogans in red paint, similar in nature to protests at Russian embassies around the world at Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
