BRIEFING: A review of drinks production and marketing rules
By just-drinks.com editorial team | 1 November 2008
Protecting local markets, traditional names and long-established production methods have long been important elements of the international drinks trading system.

Here just-drinks examines the state of drinks production and marketing laws worldwide and examines how governments and international organisations are trying to balance protecting excellence with the need to allow free trade and competition within the sector.
