STREAMLINE YOUR R&D AND FINANCES

From grain to glass, breweries and distilleries face unique challenges that demand expertise and precision. At Gild, we pair innovative Virtual CFO and business management solutions with specialised R&D incentives and grants services to ensure your operations remain as smooth as your finest brew.

Integrated Support for Smarter Business Operations

Combining the expertise of your Accountant/CFO, and an R&D Consultant creates a seamless process to unlock the full potential of your eligible activities.

Gild specialises in:

Pinpointing eligible R&D projects aligned with Australian regulations.
Simplifying the documentation and compliance process.
Providing proactive financial reporting that integrates R&D benefits, so you can see exactly how these savings fuel your growth.

By letting us manage your R&D claims alongside your financial strategy, your team gains clarity, efficiency, and the freedom to focus on delivering exceptional market ready products.

YOUR PARTNER IN R&D AND FINANCE

The Australian Government’s R&D Tax Incentive offers eligible breweries and distilleries a refundable offset of up to 43.5% for companies with turnovers below $20 million, or a non-refundable offset of 38.5% for larger companies.

This means significant tax savings on eligible research and development activities—money that can be reinvested into your business to fund innovation, enhance productivity, and drive growth.

Faster Market Entry Through Innovation Funding

Claiming the R&D Tax Incentive doesn’t just cut costs; it accelerates the journey from idea to market.

With Gild’s guidance, you’ll maximise your entitlement and fast-track your financial strategy, putting your brewery or distillery steps ahead in a dynamic industry.
