About Miles Industry Advisory

Miles Industry Advisory (MIA) exists to help businesses cut through the noise, get lean, and grow smarter. Led by Trent Miles (yep, that's me), MIA works with companies who want practical advice — not another 100-page report. With 20+ years of real-world industry experience, we specialise in Lean process improvement, operational strategy, and scaling businesses sustainably. If you want to get serious about driving efficiency, reducing waste, and building a business that can weather the storms — that's what we do.

The Partnership: Craft Meets Strategy

Crimson Finch Brewery and Miles Industry Advisory joining forces is about more than fine-tuning operations — it’s about setting the business up for long-term success.

Over the past few months, we’ve been working alongside the new ownership team and Master Brewer to rework workflows, streamline production, and introduce Lean principles that help them scale without losing what makes their beer special.

This isn’t about squeezing the soul out of the craft — it’s about protecting it, while making sure the business is profitable, sustainable, and ready for the next stage of growth.

Why This Matters

The craft brewing industry is booming — and competition is heating up. In fact, the Queensland Government now formally recognises craft brewing as a core part of our manufacturing sector.

That means breweries like Crimson Finch need more than good beer to thrive — they need smart operations, clear strategy, and systems that support scaling. That’s where Lean thinking comes in. It’s about doing more with less, improving quality, and creating space for innovation.

By embedding these practices now, Crimson Finch isn’t just preparing for tomorrow — they’re building a business that can keep evolving without losing its edge.

Looking Ahead

The partnership between Crimson Finch Brewery and MIA is just getting started. As the brewery continues to grow, we’ll be right there — helping them stay agile, efficient, and ahead of the curve.

Because great beer deserves a great business behind it.
