Cider Association has urgent request for producers

The American Cider Association (ACA) is seeking insight from commercial cider makers to compile production information to provide the media, buyers and Congress with an overview of the U.S. industry.

The association has sent a reminder for participation in a survey of 2022 production. Responses for the online survey are Due Aug. 10. The ACA seeks 150 respondents; as of Aug. 7, 90 had participated. The survey, which takes about 20 minutes to complete, is anonymous and aggregated by an independent third party.

According to the ACA, the survey seeks information about 2022 sales; having the data handy when starting the process will help. It concerns cider only; not wine or other beverages produced by companies. Completing the survey registers participants into a raffle for one of four ACA hoodies, and one respondent will receive a ticket to CiderCon 2024 in January in Portland, Ore.
