Zusammenfassung:This study is designed to quantify the economic and ecological footprint of the European spirits sector (EU27 + UK + Norway + Switzerland = EU+) for the pre-COVID year 2019. The effects of the production and consumption of spirits must not be underestimated as they provide employment and value added in, e. g., distilleries and also have an impact on upstream (e. g. agriculture) and downstream industries (e. g. the catering sector). The aim of the study at hand is to estimate the effects of the spirits sector on employment, gross value added (GVA) and fiscal effects in every EU+ country by means of a multiregional input-output model. In addition, it also investigates spirits-related tourism effects and the ecological footprint of the sector.
