World: AB InBev looking to replace CEO Carlos Brito - report
|
Anheuser-Busch InBev, the maker of Budweiser and Stella Artois, has launched a process to replace chief executive Carlos Brito, the Brazilian who led its transformation into the world’s largest brewer through takeovers during his 16-year tenure, the Financial Times reported on September 7.
The brewer is seriously considering outside candidates for the role, said three people with knowledge of the matter, in what would be a significant move for a company that prides itself on its homegrown culture.
Two of these people said AB InBev was working with recruitment firm Spencer Stuart on the search. One of the people said Mr Brito was involved with the AB InBev board in the process and planned to step down at some point next year.
Part of the reason for the external search is that AB InBev is considering only one internal candidate, Michel Doukeris, who heads its North America-based Anheuser-Busch business, these people added. Other candidates previously tipped as possible candidates such as chief strategy officer David Almeida and chief marketing officer Pedro Earp are not being considered.
It is also possible Mr Brito remains in charge for longer if the company does not settle on a candidate from the search, one of

UK: Overall alcohol consumption halved during lockdown
|
The overall UK consumption of alcohol halved during lockdown, data from Nielsen has suggested, despite staggering sales rises through the supermarkets, the Drinks Business Review reported on September 7.
The total volume of alcohol sold during lockdown (the 17 weeks to 11 July 2020) fell to 1.3 bln litres, down from 2 bln the previous year, data from Nielsen Scantrack and the CGA found, despite value sales through the major retailers rising £1.9 bln over the same period.
Sales of booze at the supermarket during the four month period hit £7.7 bln, it said, however with the on-trade remaining shut, the overall volume of alcohol bought in the UK was far lower than last year, despite the increase in value.
Nielsen’s senior client business partner Gemma Cooper pointed out that around 46% of booze sold in the UK was sold through the on-trade and although spend had undoubtedly shifted to the off-trade, it was not enough to make up for the shortfall.
Speaking to Retail Times, she said that while the perception of lockdown was that it was “a boozy one” due to the soaring retail sales, the UK was not consuming more alcohol than normal. “This is far from the case, she said.

USA: Bud leads the 10 most valuable beer brand families in the US
|
IRI, a Chicago-based market research firm, has collected sales data on dozens of beer brands to demonstrate the influence of the world’s biggest brewing companies.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, global brewer AB InBev has the most influence across the top 10, owning four brand families with a total sales of close to US$13 billion and taking up close to a third of the global beer market.
The data also shows the stratospheric growth of the hard seltzer market, with sales of White Claw rising by close to 250% over the past year. The White Claw brand family is now more valuable than beer labels Busch and Heineken, and sold almost twice as many cases of seltzer in the US than Heineken did over the course of 2020.
The figures show retail sales figures across the US in the 52 weeks to 9 August 2020.

Nigeria: Heineken Brouwerijen increases its stake in Nigerian Breweries
|
The major shareholder of the largest brewer in Nigeria, Heineken Brouwerijen B.V, has increased its stake in Nigerian Breweries, with the purchase of 233,110 additional units of Nigerian Breweries shares. This was disclosed by the company in a notification sent to the Nigerian Stock Exchange, which was seen by Nairametrics.
According to the notification, which was signed by the Company’s Secretary, Uaboi G. Agbebaku, the purchase was made on the bourse over two transactions on the 2nd and 3rd of September.
This disclosure is a regulatory requirement that must be reported to the Nigerian Stock Exchange, especially when a major shareholder or director of a publicly quoted company purchases shares in the company they own.
The analysis of these transactions indicates that the purchase consideration for the 233,110 additional units of Nigeria Breweries shares at an average price of N39.94 is put at N9.3 million.
This purchase and previous purchases further cement Heineken Brouwerijen B.V’s status as a major shareholder; the company has accumulated a total of 7,720,236 since 30th June.
As of June 30th, when Nigerian Breweries released its Half-year financial results and reviewed its shareholding pattern, the company had exactly 7,996,902,051 outstanding shares, with Heineken Brouwerijen B.V being the majority shareholder with 3,019,363,804

France: France’s more than 2,000 independent brewers offer an astonishing range of flavours
|
With more than 2,000 independent brewers, France is the European leader in the business of craft beer, with an astonishing range of flavours available. The industry uses raw materials like stale bread and coffee grounds, and is to be found in the most unlikely places, RFI reported on September 5.
What would you say to a glass of Phoenix? A dark brown brew based on stale bread (from a top-class local baker) and coffee pulp from a Peruvian blender just around the corner.
Or an Alabama, light brown with its own hint of coffee? Or prune beer? Perhaps one based on black wheat from Brittany?
Don't rush – there are over 300 different styles of craft beer to choose from, all of them produced by French enthusiasts who have decided to reject the standardised product offered by the big multinational brewers.
"I don't know how anyone can drink IPA," Pascale, a frequent visitor to the tiny Goutte d'Or brewery in the northern Paris neighbourhood, told Journal du Dimanche, referring to the hop-heavy India Pale Ale style.
Another customer agrees that it's hard to return to commercially brewed beer once you've tried the output of the microbreweries. "There's less sugar. You can taste the ingredients,

New Zealand: Beer sales data shows NZ$200 mln loss to pubs due to Covid-19
|
An analysis of the latest beer sales data in New Zealand has revealed a revenue hole of NZ$200 mln for bars, pubs and restaurants caused by the COVID closures, the Australian Brews News reported on September 7.
Combining information from Stats NZ and Nielsen Scan shows on-premise beer sales dropped significantly in first half of 2020 but the slack for brewers was to some extent picked up by sales in supermarkets and bottle stores.
The data shows that craft beer sales have bounced back from an initial Covid-19 kick and there was also a small lift in classic styles as Kiwis moved their drinking from the pub to the home.
Stats NZ data shows that, for the first six months of 2020, total beer available for consumption was 125.2 million litres. The was down 8 mln litres on the same period last year when 133.3 mln litres was available for consumption.
Overlaying Nielsen Scantrack data for the same periods shows a big uplift in grocery sales to compensate for pubs being closed, and then while working on reduced patronage from March to late May.
Beer volume in grocery (supermarkets and bottle stores) for the first half of 2020 totalled 105.5 million litres compared with 96

Vietnam & New Zealand: Vietnamese craft beers to be brewed and released in New Zealand
|
A range of Vietnamese craft beers will be brewed and released in New Zealand as of later this year, Inside FMCG reported on September 7.
The move is the result of a partnership between Saigon-based Heart of Darkness and Auckland brewery Behemoth Brewing, which extends to nationwide distribution.
“Giving people a taste of Vietnamese craft beer in New Zealand is going to be a fun journey for us and Behemoth to work together on,” said Heart of Darkness founder John Pemberton.
“I know that Andrew and his team are going to have a great time brewing our beers and we hope the New Zealand craft beer drinker is going to get a lot of enjoyment from having fresh Heart of Darkness brews available to them.”
“About a year ago, whilst at the Seabrew conference in Thailand, we started talking about whether there was an opportunity to do something together in New Zealand,” said Behemoth founder Andrew Childs.
“Then Covid lockdowns hit both our businesses, and although it delayed a few things, we realised over lots and lots of Zoom calls that brewing something exotic from overseas might go some way to help the homebound situation we currently have in New Zealand.”

Australia & China: Australian barley exports to China rise sharply in July
|
Australian barley exports to China have risen sharply in July after dropping to virtually nothing in June after the Chinese government announced its 80 per cent duty on imports from Australia as retaliation for alleged dumping, the Farm Weekly reported on September 9.
Lloyd George, AgScientia analyst, said recently issued Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) data showed Australia had exported over 90,000 tonnes of barley to China in July after just 3500 tonnes in June.
In May, when the Chinese announced the duties on Australian barley, there was 243,000 tonnes exported.
Mr George said there was no way Australian barley could compete on the international market with the duties imposed so it was likely the grain was heading to Chinese free trade zones (FTZs).
China has implemented a network of 18 FTZs across the country where duties do not apply.
This means barley can be sent from Australia to a Chinese FTZ and avoid the prohibitive duties, although if it is then sent to another part of China under normal Chinese financial rules the duties must be paid.
However, it can then be processed in the Chinese FTZ and exported either as malted barley or as malt, with China a major exporter of malt.

UK: English crop fails to make impact on malting barley market
|
Fears at sowing time that England’s exceptional 2020 spring barley acreage would pose a threat to the Scottish malting markets have proved to be groundless, The Courier reported on September 5.
As combines continue to cut a swathe through harvest fields both north and south of the border, commentators are confirming that English yields and quality have failed to make an impact on Scotland’s traditional dominance of the malting barley market.
Frontier’s general manager in Scotland, Bruce Ferguson, said the English crop, which was sown in land that would traditionally be used for winter cereals, has had a low level of conformity for malting.
“It looked like a big crop on paper, but it hasn’t performed as malting barley, which was always going to be the potential,” he said.
“Winter cereals land is that for a reason, it doesn’t suit spring crops, and that’s what has materialised this year, whereas historically in Scotland we’ve grown malting barley as a primary crop.”
However, NFU Scotland’s cereals committee chairman Willie Thomson, who farms near Haddington, voiced concerns that the extra spring barley could swamp the feed market.
He said: “It’s not going to trouble our malting market but the oceans of feed barley could drag the price down
