UK: Greene King purchases its Scottish rival Belhaven
The UK’s Greene King Brewer said on August 22 that it agreed to buy its rival from Scotland -Belhaven for 187 million pounds. "It is a unique opportunity for us to gain immediate scale in the important Scottish market," Rooney Anand, stated Chief Executive of Greene King, according to Associated Press.
The 625-pence-per-share offer, for the entire issued capital of the company, represents a 15.6 percent premium to Belhaven's closing price on Friday, and will be partly funded through a share placement to raise 47 million pounds, it added. The deal will add Belhaven's 200 tenanted pubs and 100 managed pubs to Greene King's estate of 2,064.
The Synergies expected to be generated in the first year of about 3 million pounds, rise to 5 million pounds over the next two years, said Greene King. "Belhaven will retain everything at the heart of its success, including its name, its brands, and its brewery, but will also benefit from being part of a larger group opening up new markets for its products," Anand stressed.

UK: Beer concedes bit by bit its place to wine
A new report reveal that for the first time British shoppers are spending more on wine than on beer. An estimated £1.97bn a year is now spent on wine, compared to £1.79bn on beer. Experts say the swing is the result of a number of factors, including clever marketing, the lack of a major sporting event this summer (traditionally a boost for beer sales) and, significantly, a substantial increase in women's drinking the Independent reported on August 21.
Craig Smith, the editor of Marketing magazine, which will publish the results of the TNS-conducted survey in this week's issue, said wine sales had risen by £250m since last year, while sales of beer had declined slightly.
"We are now in the era of branded wine," Mr Smith said. "Previously, wines had been a fairly impenetrable sector for most grocery consumers, who were faced with a big wall of bottles and didn't really know what to choose."
The consumption of alcohol by British women increased by 27 % between 1998 and 2003, with this group now accounting for 55 % of all wine which is drunk in the United Kingdom.
