Food & Beverage Production
Asset Governance in Food & Beverage Production
Food and drink producers — from artisan makers and craft brewers to large-scale processors and packagers — operate capital-intensive environments where equipment condition, hygiene compliance, and traceability are critical. Asset governance supports planned maintenance to prevent contamination risks, accurate insurance of process plant, compliance with BRC and food safety standards, and the management of assets across multiple production sites or contract manufacturing arrangements.
Example Assets
| Asset | Approx. Value | Ownership | Location | Insurance Consideration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Process & Mixing Equipment (Blenders, Vats, Extruders) | £10,000–£500,000 | Production Manager / Technical Director | Factory floor – fixed installation | Plant & machinery cover – hygiene-grade equipment values often outdated |
| Packaging Lines & Labelling Machinery | £20,000–£300,000 | Production / Engineering Manager | Packaging hall | Plant cover – frequent changeover parts often not included in asset record |
| Cold Storage & Refrigeration Plant | £15,000–£250,000 | Site Manager / Technical Manager | Production and warehouse areas | Plant cover – temperature control failure risk makes accurate cover critical |
| Brewing, Distilling & Fermentation Vessels | £5,000–£500,000 | Head Brewer / Production Director | Production facility | Specialist plant cover – custom vessels hard to value without records |
| Laboratory & Quality Control Equipment | £2,000–£50,000 | QA Manager / Technical Director | QC labs on-site | Specialist equipment cover – calibration records essential for BRC compliance |
