Europe/Russia
Belgium | AB-InBev’s CEO Michel Doukeris addressed the Bud Light controversy during the company’s first quarter 2023 earnings call on 5 May. He said it is “too early to have a full view” of the impact of sponsoring an Instagram post by transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.
Europe/Russia
Netherlands | As of 1 April, the Netherlands has expanded its national deposit return system for beverage containers to now include aluminium and steel cans. Eligible cans have a deposit of EUR 0.15 (USD 0.17).
Europe/Russia
Netherlands | Heineken reported a steeper than expected decline in first-quarter beer sales, with weaker volumes recorded in all regions except the Americas. But it maintained its forecast for profit growth by a mid- to high- single-digit percentage in 2023.
Europe/Russia
Sweden | Too clever by half, Pernod Ricard was forced to stop exporting its Absolut Vodka to Russia after a backlash in its home country, Sweden. The company had ceased exports in March 2022 after Russia invaded Ukraine, but had recently resumed them.
Europe/Russia
Russia | The Dutch brewer has found a buyer for its business in Russia, the company said on 19 April. Heineken is currently expecting an approval from the Russian government.
Europe/Russia
Italy | Folks at Asahi seem to have a thing about the Gulf of Naples and the island of Capri. Best known for its sublime natural beauty and fashionable Capri pants, Asahi is now promising us a Capri-style beer. From April, Peroni Nastro Azzurro Stile Capri will be launched in Hungary, Italy, Romania, the United Kingdom, and Ireland.
Europe/Russia
France | Danielle Dambach, the mayor of Schiltigheim, announced that the 41st edition of the local Beer Festival will take place from 4 -7 August, but without the “privileged partner” of this event, the Espérance brewery (Heineken).
Europe/Russia
Denmark | Carlsberg has appointed the current head of services provider ISS as its new chief executive. The Dane Jacob Aarup-Andersen, 45, will replace the Dutchman Cees 't Hart, 65, who said in March that he will retire at the end of September.
Europe/Russia
Denmark | That was quick. Only hours after Russian media reported on 15 March that Carlsberg will sell its Russian unit, Baltika, to its rival AB-InBev-Efes, Carlsberg in Copenhagen stated that this was not correct.
Europe/Russia
United Kingdom | The world’s major drinks group, Diageo, has appointed its Chief Operating Officer, Debra Crew, 52, as its new CEO, making her the 10th woman to lead one of the UK’s top 100 listed companies.
