FlexRoller helps organize the fast growing craft beer category!
Craft Beer is the new growth generator for the beverage category.
The craft beer category posted double-digit growth for the 8th straight year and in 2013 craft beer as a category overtook Budweiser.
Craft brewers reported a 13% increase in volume in 2015 as American beer drinkers continued to be lured by fuller-flavored ales.
With 4,269 breweries - more than ever before - the craft beer industry now represents 12% market share of the total beer market.
The growth was especially notable as the total U.S. beer market reported a slight drop of 0.2% in volume for 2015.

Craft beer overtakes Bud
The Grocery channel is outperforming C-stores in craft beer
Grocery retailers have fully capitalized on that growth trend with dedicated coolers for the craft beer category as well as unique shopping experience with shopper customized six-packs.
C-stores are not yet capitalizing on this trend and are lagging behind due to limited cooler space and limited shelf flexibility for frequent planogram changes.
FlexRoller is the optimum shelf management system to organize this category, provide the necessary flexibility to change planograms frequently as new beers are launched and demanded by consumers and keeping it fronted and shoppable.
FlexRoller is helping C-stores get ahead of the competition by supporting the craft beer category.
