This week we’re catching up with Richard Kelsey and Geoff Huens from online beer retailer Beer Cartel.Late last year Beer Cartel released its results and advised it was moving to an online-only model, closing its Artamon store. With more than a decade of experience watching the growth of craft beer and the various fashions, from rare imports and growlers towards a move to local craft beer, as well as the significant jump in online during the pandemic, I was interested to hear about how these trends are impacting the decisions that a comparatively small online retailer is making.Beer Cartel also raised nearly $1.5 million on a valuation of $20 million dollars 18 months ago, and with providing annual financial reports a requirement for businesses that raise funds in this way, it provides a window into the state of the craft industry, and we chat about how the business is going and also their decision to crowdfund and the results.If you like what we do at Radio Brews News you can help us out by: Sponsoring the show Reviewing us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or your favourite podcasting service Emailing us at producer@brewsnews.com.au to share your thoughts
