Working with Vialex

Since its foundation in 2003, Innis & Gunn has become one of the UK’s most successful international craft brewers.  The business has grown to be the No.2 craft beer in the UK off-trade and exports its multi-award winning beers to over 25 countries, selling over 27m bottles of beer in 2016.  The first Innis & Gunn Beer Kitchen opened in Edinburgh in 2015, and has successfully grown to three bars in Scotland with plans to expand further in Scotland, England and North America.  The company has its own Brewery in Perth where a passionate and highly skilled team of brewers create new flavoursome beers for drinkers all over the world.

George Tait, Director and Company Secretary, commented:

“At Innis & Gunn, we are passionate about bringing great tasting beers to the world, and we are internationally recognised as innovators in the craft beer movement. It was important to us that our legal advisers were aligned to our business values, and we were impressed by the approach Vialex took to support our business by offering a ‘virtual’ in-house legal team who look after our day-to-day legal needs. Essentially this is an extension to our own team, which was hugely beneficial during our recent successful AdventureCapitalTM crowdfunding campaign in which Vialex had an important advisory role.”

What we did for...

George Tait - Director and Company Secretary

We have worked with Vialex since 2012, following our buyout from a major UK foods group, when our fast evolving business required a different approach to meet our legal services needs in a cost effective way. At the time it was something of a leap of faith for Quorn Foods but we have been delighted with the service from Vialex, and the appetite they have shown to support us in any way they can.

David Artindale - Head of Procurement
We use the Vialex Legal Counsel Service as our day-to-day support for all our contracts and legal issues. They act as an extension of our own team and work with us to help us achieve our commercial goals. The subscription means we can get the advice we need when we need it for a fixed cost.

Arceeb Moughal - Director of Commercial

The Vialex Legal Counsel Service does what it says on the tin. We get a quality legal support service that responds to our needs, very often working to short timescales. The Vialex team has been particularly instrumental in assisting with our international contractual arrangements as we expand our reach into a number of new overseas markets.
