Africa: Heineken well placed in Africa and Middle East to capture local growth opportunities
|
According to Mr. Siep Hiemstra, President, Heineken Africa and Middle East, the Dutch brewing giant is well placed in Africa and the Middle East to capture growth opportunities by reaching more consumers through an expanded brand offering, strong market execution, developing local talent and capabilities, and increasing local sourcing, SPY Ghana reported on July 25.
Speaking at Executive Talk programme hosted by China Europe International Business School (CEIBS) African campus on July 24, Mr. Hiemstra also said that through strategic partnerships that are performance driven, Heineken intends to grow further by increasing its market share and also focus on cost discipline to drive profit growth.
A healthy population growth, an emerging middle class and rising urbanization are key growth drivers for beer consumption, according to Mr. Hiemstra. “Africa’s middle class is expected to grow from 355 million in 2010 (34% of Africa’s population) to 1.1 billion (42% of the population) in 2060.” Heineken is set to benefit significantly from this trend through accelerated innovation, building winning brands and activating key enablers of growth.

World: Molson Coors Brewing Co. CEO to retire at the end of the year
|
Molson Coors Brewing Co. Chief Executive Peter S. Swinburn will retire at the end of the year, and the chief of the company's European operations, Mark R. Hunter, will take over, the company announced on July 25.
The move comes weeks after Mr. Swinburn said he wouldn't rule out acquiring SABMiller PLC's 58% stake in U.S. joint venture MillerCoors if it became available. The matter came up because of speculation that the world's biggest brewer, Anheuser-Busch InBev, may try to acquire industry no. 2 SABMiller, a move that might require the divestiture of MillerCoors to satisfy antitrust concerns.
Mr. Swinburn, who is 61 years old and a 40-year beer industry veteran, has been chief executive of the Molson Canadian and Coors Light brewer since 2008.
"Peter has led the company through a period of significant growth and change, with milestones that include the formation of the MillerCoors JV in the U.S., the acquisition of StarBev in Europe, and the development of additional strong and growing global brands," Molson Coors Chairman Peter H. Coors said in a news release. "Simply put, we are a stronger, more global and more dynamic company today as a result of Peter's influence."
Recently, under Mr. Swinburn's direction, Molson Coors—the

North Korea: Government’s efforts to produce better-quality beer seems to be paying off
|
The North Korean government’s efforts to produce better-quality beer seems to be paying off, Voice of America reported on July 29.
Lager produced with Czech Republic technology, expertise, and ingredients is captivating the taste buds of tourists to the communist country, as well as the rich young adults of Pyongyang. That is according to Tomas Novotny of the Czech brewing company Zvu Potez.
“Many Russian and Chinese tourists, as well as North Koreans from Pyongyang travel [to the Rason Special Economic Zone] only to taste this beer,” said Novotny in a telephone interview with the VOA Korean service.
According to Zvu Potez’s website, the company is well-known for beer production expertise. It reportedly has helped build as many as 200 complete breweries and 50 mini-breweries around the globe.
Earlier this month, Martin Kovar, Sales Director at Zvu Potez, said in an interview with local daily Mlada Fronta Dnes that North Korean representatives in the Czech Republic approached his company directly.
“We took the [North Korean] representatives to a few Czech microbreweries, and then they chose a type of beer that appealed to them the most,” Kovar explained.
North Korea then opened a microbrewery in the Rason Special Economic Zone in late 2013 and equipped it entirely

France: Winter barley values declining on news of good crop

French winter malting barley values are declining on news of an abundant and quality crop, La Depeche reported on July 25.
Industry sources reported several deals closed on winter malting barley of crop 2014, but activity is calmer on spring barley markets. Industry players are waiting for information on the crop’s quality and quantity before making or accepting any offers.

UK: Results of Recommended List winter barley varieties trials are announced by HGCA
|
Results from seven trials of Recommended List winter barley varieties are presented this week ranging from Devon in the west, Edinburgh to the north and Norfolk to the east, HGCA reported on July 28.
Average yields remain buoyant in 2014 at 10.02 t/ha which compares well to the five year average of 8.98 t/ha. This is over a tonne/ha better than average at this stage. The Devon site has performed exceptionally well at 10.55 t/ha
Six-row varieties on the HGCA Recommended List still head the table on yields, with the hybrid variety Volume achieving 106% compared to the control varieties, and the conventional variety KWS Meridian 105%.
Two-row feed varieties also continue to perform well. Higher yielding varieties in 2014 include California (103%), KWS Glacier (102%) and KWS Tower (101%). Malting varieties are more about quality than yield, but Talisman have achieved yields 97% and SY venture 95% to date in 2014.
Candidate varieties are also performing well in 2014 trials, including the six-row conventional variety Daxor (105%) and the two-row feed varieties KWS Infinity (101%) and Perseus (100%).
The five year average yields provide a better representation of variety performance over a range of seasons. The six-row hybrid Volume (107%) remains the top
