Wiesbaden (dpa / lhe) - The Hessian cider and fruit juice presses have so far not recorded any massive deterioration in their business due to the corona pandemic.

The economic situation in the industry is still solid, said the Ministry of Economics in response to a small request from the SPD parliamentary group in Wiesbaden.

A closure of businesses has not yet been registered.

The demand for financial support from the country is low.

According to the information provided, 39 companies belong to the Association of Hessian Apple Wine and Fruit Juice Presses.

The Association of Apple Wine Hosts Frankfurt am Main and Surroundings eV does not belong to this group.

According to estimates by the association, around 40 million liters of cider and cider-containing drinks are produced in Hessen every year.
