BSBI students take field trip to famous beer factory
On Tuesday 17 July, students currently enrolled in the Global MBA at Berlin School of Business and Innovation visited the “Berliner Kindl” brewery in the German capital.
The historic brewery was founded in 1872 in the village of Rixdorf, just outside Berlin, and started to produce its first beer in 1890. A few years later the business expanded with the acquisition of another brewery, taking advantage of their experience to widen the range of products.
During their visit, the Global MBA students had the opportunity to follow the production process from beer making to packing, including how bottles are recycled and reused.
The field trip was organised by BSBI as part of an assignment connected to three modules of the first semester, focusing on supply chain management, marketing and innovation.

Most importantly, they found it extremely helpful for its direct connection with their studies, which will make their assignment easier.
