Region: Global
Target: Dublin, Ireland
Description/History:
The closure of the iconic Guinness brewery at St James's Gate in Dublin could be one step closer after drinks giant Diageo appointed three sets of consultants to oversee the sale of the prestigious Dublin site.
The move away from the city centre could net Diageo a windfall of up to €3bn for the 56-acre plot.
This would mean an end to production where the iconic drink has been produced since1759.

Petition:
We, the undersigned call on Diageo to consider its plans to sell St James's Gate in the name of profit, the home of a major piece of Irish culture, history and identity.
