Nigeria: Naira scarcity worsens lack of demand by consumers – Nigerian Breweries
|
Nigerian Breweries Plc, a unit of Heineken NV, said a shortage of Nigerian naira denominations has worsened a lack of demand by consumers after inflation curbed purchasing power, Bloomberg reported on February 24.
The situation aggravated in the last two months as security concerns increased ahead of the country’s presidential elections on Feb. 25.
“Nigeria business environment remains very turbulent,” Hans Essaadi, chief executive officer of Nigerian Breweries Plc, said during an investor call on February 24. “The naira scarcity has aggravated things.”
The central bank’s attempt to replace old naira notes with new ones in Africa’s biggest economy has unexpectedly resulted in shortages in the last five months, stoking the ease of transacting in the cash-dominant economy. Inflation rose to 21.8% in January, the highest since September 2005.
The company’s profit before tax decreased 27% to 17.3 billion naira ($37.6 million) in 2022 even after revenue rose 26% to 550.6 billion naira, it said in a statement to the Nigerian Stock Exchange.
The maker of Star Lager, Legend Extra Stout and Maltina malt drinks sees demand for its products bouncing back after the votes and when the cash crunch normalizes.

Vietnam: Ministry of Finance proposes to increase special consumption tax on tobacco, beer, and alcoholic products
|
Vietnam’s Ministry of Finance has proposed to increase the special consumption tax (SCT) on a number of items harmful to health including tobacco, beer, and alcoholic products to limit imports, production, and consumption, the Asia News Network reported on February 28.
The ministry is collecting public opinions on the proposal to develop the revised Law on Special Consumption Tax in which the SCT imposed on these products should be increased, saigondautu.com.vn reported.
In addition, the ministry also proposed to add new tobacco products and new equipment and trading in online video game services to be subject to excise tax, according to the online newspaper.
The MoF said the taxes on alcohol and beer in Việt Nam are still low. Currently, the country applies an excise tax on alcohol of 35-65 per cent, beer 65 per cent and cigarettes 75 per cent.
According to the World Health Organisation calculations, the tax rate only accounted for about 30 per cent of the retail price, compared to 40-85 per cent recorded in many countries.
Though the SCT on alcohol and beer products had increased from 2016 to 2018, Việt Nam was still the highest beer consumer in Southeast Asia and the third in Asia after Japan and China.

South Korea: Spirit and beverage companies say they have no plans to raise prices
|
Several South Korean spirit and beverage companies announced that they have no plans to raise prices amid government scrutiny suggesting the industry could be targeted by anti-inflation measures, the Korea JoongAng Daily reported on February 28.
Hite Jinro, the liquor company with the largest market share, announced in a statement on February 27 that it has no plans to raise soju prices for the time being.
The announcement came almost immediately after the government began looking into the industry.
The National Tax Service reportedly had a closed meeting with executives of major soju and beer companies such as Hite Jinro, Lotte Chilsung Beverage and Oriental Brewery (OB) to ask about barriers to lowering production cost.
The Finance Ministry's tax office also began investigating the production and retail structure of spirit companies.
Finance Minister Choo Kyung-ho urged the industry to cooperate with government efforts to battle inflation during a parliamentary meeting on Feb. 22, adding that people enjoy consumer products such as soju.
"Factors for a price increase exist, but the measure to keep prices steady aims to lift the burden on consumers and the self-employed," said Hite Jinro in its statement.
A spokesperson for OB also said the company does not plan

UK: Scotland’s whisky and beer makers alarmed by mooted advertising ban
|
Scott Laing, one of the many investors enticed into whisky production by a boom in demand, finished building the Ardnahoe Distillery in Scotland four years ago, the Financial Times reported on February 25.
Now, he is concerned that he may not be able to drum up interest in his first batch of liquor because of a mooted ban on alcohol advertising in the country.
“If we start selling [the whisky] in the next couple of years, we wouldn’t be able to promote it in any way within Scotland, which is a bizarre state of affairs,” said Laing, who runs the distillery on Islay with his brother and father, and invested £12.5mn to erect it.
Scottish officials have given the industry until March 9 to respond to a consultation on potential restrictions meant to help tackle the country’s “deep, longstanding and troubled relationship with alcohol”.
Beer, wine and spirits could be consigned to near the back of the shops or placed in closed cupboards, similar to tobacco products, to reduce consumption.
Other proposed measures, some of which will need Westminster’s approval, include a ban on advertising in public places, as well as prohibiting the sale of alcohol-branded sports merchandise, including sponsorship on replica kits.

France: 94% of winter barley crop rated good or excellent
|
The condition of soft wheat improved for a second week last week, data from farm office FranceAgriMer showed on February 24, indicating a record dry spell has not yet strained crops in the European Union’s biggest wheat-producing country.
An estimated 95% of soft wheat was rated as good or excellent compared with 93% the previous week and 92% two weeks earlier, according to the office’s cereal report.
The score was also above the 93% registered a year earlier.
Grain traders and analysts have said crops have avoided cold damage this winter and that soil moisture has been adequate despite an unprecedented dry spell over the past month.
However, low February rainfall has raised concerns about a possible repeat of last year’s drought during crucial spring and summer growing periods.
For winter barley, 94% of the crop was rated good or excellent, while durum wheat scored 92%.
Farmers made more swift progress in sowing spring barley, with 80% of the expected area drilled by Feb. 20, compared with 58% a week earlier and an average 24% over the previous five years, FranceAgriMer’s data showed.
