Heineken expects EUR 135 million savings by the end of 2007. Like Molson Coors, like Heineken. Brewer Heineken expects to cut costs by EUR 135 million to EUR 155 million in 2007. It’s called the globalisation squeeze. René Hooft Graafland, Heineken’s Chief Financial Officer, said in a media interview in March that Heineken still plans to meet its cost-savings target of EUR 450 million, or EUR 200 million on a net basis, by 2008. He explained that 55 percent to 60 percent of those cuts would be completed by year-end.

“Energy and Water Efficiency” held at the EBC Congress in Prague was dedicated to the increase in efficiency in the industry with special focus on energy and water management. Frank Lynch, Diageo Global Supply, took the chair. The first lecture “Maintenance strategies/ efficiency engineering” was given by Dr. Uwe Biermann (ATM, Germany). Biermann did not address individual factors regarding the increase in efficiency like water management or energy savings, but spoke of the necessity to optimise the overall efficiency of a single company by reduction of expenses per production unit. One possible solution can be the minimisation of the maintenance effort. Biermann presented the management software “DIVA”, which can contribute to this effectively by for instance minimisation of storage costs for spare parts.

“SLOW SLOW QUICK QUICK SLOW that’s how we go. And, by the way, I lead, you follow. Counter-leading is off. Should you lean too heavily on me, I will keep you at arm’s length. That way you will have to maintain balance without me holding you up.” Anti-monopoly watchdogs rest assured: This is no coded strategic agreement between competitors in a market duopoly. This is ballroom tango etiquette. “ONE TWO THREE FOUR, tara tara ta, ONE TWO THREE FOUR.” Or as the British would say: “honi soit qui mal y pense.”
