The last few weeks have turned the World upside down. Everyday life has come to a stop and, as On-Trade businesses, we are severely impacted.
We are working on the best solutions to support you in order to get through the COVID-19 Pandemic together and bounce back once things start to normalise again.
For now, we hope these guidelines help you to manage your outlets' installations and prepare you to be back in business.
Please stay safe,
Your DraughtMaster Team
