Our mission
We help your bar pull the perfect pint, save costs and work towards being kinder to the planet.
We have a combined knowledge of 50 years of serving the licensed trade.
This wealth of personal experience drives our passion to help licensed business owners like you, to get more profit from your business.
During these years we have witnessed first-hand how profits are being attacked from higher business rates and taxes, increased price competition from supermarkets and soon to be legal, environmental practices.
Our story
A journey of discovery, opportunity and achievement.
-
Where we started
We looked at ways we could help bars and their owners fight back against all these rising costs. We found one major area.
-
£30 Billion a year
After reviewing the figures of how the industry loses some £30 billion a year in lost pints due to dirty beer lines and, after looking at what else is on the market to combat this, DING was born.
-
The complete system
We wanted to offer the licensed trade a complete beer line cleaning system that made real savings, would meet up-coming environmental pressures and serve a fresher pint for customers.
-
Where we're going
Expansion accross the UK and global distribution with trusted partners is paving the way for our international growth.
