0 Czech Republic: Finance Ministry unveils plans to privatise Budvar Brewery

Budejovicky Budvar is a candidate for privatisation, said Finance Minister Miroslav Kalousek, according to Pravo and Radio Praha article published on August 27th. Deputy Finance Minister Ivan Fuksa outlined the government's privatisation plans in an interview with Mlada Fronta Dnes on Monday.

Mr. Fuksa told Mlada Fronta that teams had been formed within the Ministry to work on the privatisation deals. He said that brands such as Budejovicky Budvar beer would only be sold to those willing to maintain the product's integrity. The sale of the Budvar brewery has, however, sparked criticism. In a television debate on Sunday, deputy prime-minister Jiri Cunek spoke out against the plans, saying that it made little sense to sell off a company that made the government billions of crowns every year.

The daily Pravo said that the Agriculture Ministry is now expected to pave the way for the sale by transforming the state-owned enterprise into a joint-stock company.

Deputy Prime Minister Jiri Cunek expressed opposition to a Budvar selloff Sunday.

According to recent reports, Budvar is one of several state-owned companies being prepared for full or partial privatisation by the government, in a series of transactions that analysts estimate could raise more than 100 bln ... More Info

0 China: Tsingtao H1 profit increase on rising beer demand

Tsingtao Brewery Co Ltd , China's largest beer maker by revenue, posted a 63.4 percent increase in first-half profit from a year earlier as rising Chinese incomes boosted demand for beer and a taste for more expensive brews, Reuters published on August 27th.

China's beer market, where a 640-ml bottle can cost just 12 U.S. cents, is the world's largest by volume and grew more than 16 percent in the first half, according to Merrill Lynch.

Last year, the market grew nearly 15 percent to 351.5 million hectolitres -- a third consecutive year of double-digit volume growth.

Hong Kong and Shanghai-listed Tsingtao Brewery, 27 percent-owned by top U.S. beer maker Anheuser-Busch Cos. Inc. , has come under pressure from foreign rivals SABMiller , Heineken and Carlsberg and rising raw material costs.

January-June net income increased to 347.57 million yuan from 212.74 million yuan a year earlier.

The sales volume of Tsingtao's top four brands reached 19.04 million hl for year-over-year growth of 24.6 percent, the firm said in a statement.

Tsingtao hopes to maintain 12 percent sales growth this year to 50.8 million hectolitres against an 11.5 percent gain in 2006.
