Society of Independent Brewers
- Society of Independent Brewers
The Society of Independent Brewers was founded in 1980 under the title The Small Independent Brewers Association (SIBA) to represent the interests of the growing numbers of independent brewing companies in the United Kingdom. It was intended to fight the pub-tie system under which large breweries owned 80% of the UKs pubs.
It changed its name in 1995 to reflect better the changing aspirations of its members, but maintained its original acronym.
SIBA aims to ensure that its members’ products are always of high quality and membership is conditional upon adhering to the Society’s Code of Practice and By-Laws.
Direct Delivery Scheme
In December 2003, SIBA launched the Direct Delivery Scheme (DDS) to help small brewers promote, sell and distribute their beers to local pubs, pubcos and retailers. The Internet-based system facilitates trade between "micro-suppliers and macro-consumers." [http://www.siba.co.uk/dds/index.php?about_DDS]
