In our existing markets, we often have agreements in place that do not allow parallel trading. We will consider the region and scope of your interest and, if there is potential, we will forward you an application form. Once you have provided further detail on the form, and if your application is successful, we will begin discussions for an agreement, partnership and agreed plan of action.
Credit applications
NBL does not encourage 30-day accounts, as our products are fast moving. In addition, cash customers receive a 1.5% cash discount.
Application forms are available at your nearest depot or agency or at the NBL credit control department. Completed forms can be returned to any of these. NBL will be in contact once the form has been processed.

NBL is proud to sponsor public events that are aligned with our values and strategy.
Any person that is hosting a public event or an outlet with an account with NBL.
All requests must be done on the website www.nambrew.com/events at least two weeks prior to the hosting of the event.
Equipment requests are discussed weekly on Wednesday mornings, feedback is provided thereafter.
Each item has a value associated to it, i.e. 1 table and bench set = 1 case of product or 1 single door fridge = 10 cases of product, depending on the amount of equipment rented, the customer would need to buy the corresponding amount of NBL products in exchange for the rental. A slip of the items purchased must be sent together with the rental agreement prior to the event to confirm the booking.
Once the request has been approved and an equipment rental contract has been signed, a receipt of the required items purchased must be submitted 48 hours prior to equipment delivery/set up.
