Hello all,
I am a member of a team of University of Washington students working on a project for an entrepreneurship class. We are gathering information about the home brewing market for a potential business. I understand that this is a unique post, but we wanted to talk directly with the potential customers of such a business.
Concept:
We would operate a business which sells glass bottles and labels for the bottles at wholesale prices. These bottles would come in an array of sizes and colors, from 11 oz. stubbies to growlers and pints. We would offer a screen printed or sugar cane paper labels which the brewer would design through our website. As the business developed, we would integrate a recycling/refund system for the bottles. Basically, the bottle for your creation could be as unique as the beer you make to put into it!
Questions:
Where do you find bottles now?
What about the bottling process is most challenging for you?
What are the aspects of bottling that we may be overlooking?
Would you use this service?
Thank you in advance for your feedback, critiques, and ideas. We undergrads appreciate your help, and delicious beer!
