We are very low stocked right now, it's been hard to get enough stock in to keep up with demand to be honest. We shipped over 13,000 orders in May, over 60,000 items.
On the up side we have some very big orders in with suppliers, reminisent to what I was trying to order when lock down started and you lot wiped us out in a weekend :)
The Mangrove Jacks kits the last update we had on these was mid-june, that should include their pure malt enhancers as well. Go big or go home is our motto so we've ordered a load of beer and cider kits from those ranges.
2 can kits such as the muntons are constantly on order but supply has been affected by warehouse moves by 2 of the bigger suppliers in the country. I'm led to belive that these are more or less done now though and I'd hope to see the muntons kits coming back into stock again early next week. We knew in advance these moves were coming and ordered in as much as we could get our hands on and more, but when we're shipping the quantity of items we are right now 2 weeks without a delivery on certain products is a lifetime. Fingers crossed all the dme and enhancers arrive at the same time as well.
Coopers we had over 1,000 kits delivered yesterday but they are literally grab them whilst you can, over 300 have sold in less than 24 hours and the next delivery into the UK is over 3 weeks away.
Coopers are imported from Australia so to ramp up supply isn't an easy thing to do logistically because order to delivery times can be up to 3 months so it's never going to be instant. I do know however that there will be twice as much per month arriving from August... you just have to drink more slowly until then
For the kits manufactured in the UK they all take up valuable time on machines, plus with increased demand the lead times on the raw materials themselves also increases. The more kits need making the longer the queues on the machines become and even with increased running times of the machines into the evenings/weekends right now it's still not enough to keep supply constant.
The lead times on stock aren't going to go away in the next couple of months though, and in fact are increasing, so with that in mind we've just recently sourced another single can brand that isn't in the UK at the moment and outsells Coopers in Australia,
Morgans Brewing, which fingers crossed will be on a boat from Brisbane in the next week or so. We have 11,500 kits arriving on that and can't wait to get them available for you guys.
Also as an FYI, spend £100 on our site right now and you can have 6 x Frosty Jacks 330ml glasses on us whilst stocks last.
I hope this helps guys
