Arrr, mateys! Two glass bottlin' plants be takin' a hit from Bud Light's scandalous partnership wit' transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney! Come July, they be shuttin' down, leavin' 600 brave souls out o' work.
Ahoy mateys! Avast ye! Thar be some trouble brewin' for a glass bottling company that works with the fine folks at Bud Light. Arr, it seems that their partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney has caused quite the stir. The company, known as the Ardagh Group, has decided to close down two of its locations in North Carolina and Louisiana, leavin' over 600 employees out of work. Why, ye ask? Well, it be all because of the plummetin' sales of Bud Light, me hearties.Ye see, after Mulvaney announced the collaboration with Bud Light on social media, it seems that the demand for the brew went down faster than a ship in a storm. Workers at the bottlin' plants noticed a decrease in production, and some machines had to be taken offline. The company executives blamed the slow sales on Anheuser-InBev, the parent company of Bud Light, and decided to shut down the plants.
But it ain't just the bottlin' company that's feelin' the effects of this controversy. Bud Light itself has been sufferin' from a decline in sales and a nationwide boycott. Some folks just ain't happy about celebratin' "365 Days of Girlhood" with special Mulvaney cans and bathtub drinkin'. The brand has been tryin' to salvage its reputation by offerin' discounts and rebates, but it seems the damage has been done.
In fact, Bud Light sales were down a hefty 24.4% compared to last year, and Modelo Especial has taken over as the top-selling beer brand. Mulvaney, in the midst of it all, has spoken out against the backlash, claimin' to have faced more bullying and transphobia than ever imagined. It seems that this pirate's tale of Bud Light's misfortune is far from over, me hearties.
