Diageo and Gea collaborate on Project Phoenix
Diageo recently invested EUR 169 million in the world-famous home of Guinness at St James’s Gate in Dublin, Ireland. To enhance the production of Guinness Flavour Extract (GFE), which is exported all over the world to enable the local production of Guinness, Project Phoenix involved the implementation of new raw material intake and handling systems, a new brewhouse, a new cold process area as well as modifications to the existing cold process area to integrate the existing plant with new, improved utilities and expanded capacity.
