  • Big Beer Duopoly a Primer for Policymakers and Regulators
    Big Beer Duopoly A Primer for Policymakers and Regulators Marin Institute Report October 2009 Marin Institute Big Beer Duopoly A Primer for Policymakers and Regulators Executive Summary While the U.S. beer industry has been consolidating at a rapid pace for years, 2008 saw the most dramatic changes in industry history to date. With the creation of two new global corporate entities, Anheuser-Busch InBev (ABI) and MillerCoors, how beer is marketed and sold in this country will never be the same. Anheuser-Busch InBev is based in Belgium and largely supported and managed by Brazilian leadership, while MillerCoors is majority-controlled by SABMiller out of London. It is critical for federal and state policymakers, as well as alcohol regulators and control advocates to understand these changes and anticipate forthcoming challenges from this new duopoly. This report describes the two industry players who now control 80 percent of the U.S. beer market, and offers responses to new policy challenges that are likely to negatively impact public health and safety. The new beer duopoly brings tremendous power to ABI and MillerCoors: power that impacts Congress, the Office of the President, federal agencies, and state lawmakers and regulators. Summary of Findings • Beer industry consolidation has resulted in the concentration of corporate power and beer market control in the hands of two beer giants, Anheuser-Busch InBev (ABI) and MillerCoors LLC. • The American beer industry is no longer American. Eighty percent of the U.S. beer industry is controlled by one corporation based in Belgium, and another based in England. • The mergers of ABI and MillerCoors occurred within months of each other, and both were approved much quicker than the usual merger process.

    Miller Brewing Company :: Miller Unveils Soldier Recognition Program, 'Miller Unsung Heroes,' With Stars & Stripes Newspaper Miller Unveils Soldier Recognition Program, 'Miller Unsung Heroes,' With Stars & Stripes Newspaper -- Sgt. Brian Horn Brown of LaPlata, Maryland Selected as First Award Recipient -- MILWAUKEE, June 9 /PRNewswire/ -- As part of Miller Brewing Company's 150th Anniversary Celebration, and our continuing efforts to support our military personnel, the company has unveiled a "Miller Unsung Heroes" program with Stars and Stripes newspaper. The program was launched through a full-page ad in the May 15th edition of Stars & Stripes in Europe, the Pacific and the Middle East. The aim of the program is to recognize military personnel who go beyond the call of duty every day, often with little or no recognition. Therefore, each month, beginning in June, Miller Brewing Company will recognize an active serviceperson with the "Miller Unsung Hero Award". The recipient will be recognized with a full-page biography detailing the person's achievements. The program will culminate in January with the selection of the "Miller Unsung Hero of the Year" award and celebrate the recipient's contributions with a full-page story in Stars & Stripes and Timeout Sports Magazine. In addition, each "Miller Unsung Hero of the Month" and "Miller Unsung Hero of the Year" awardee will receive an exciting award package from Miller expressing the company's gratitude for their contributions, commitment to excellence, and service to our country as a proud member of our U.S. Military. "The purpose of this program is to celebrate those untold stories of valor, commitment and pride of our military members," said Victor Chua, Vice President of Miller International.

  • Sabmiller: the Battle for Latin America
    SABMiller: The battle for Latin America Abstract SABMiller plc., which was started in 1895, is a South African based brewery giant. Since then it has expanded from its original South African base into a global company with operations in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, Latin America and North America. Today, it is multinational company and its headquarters are in London. The company marketed over 200 brands across 75 countries and it was the world's second-largest brewing company measured by revenues and was also a major bottler of Coca-Cola. Through their “Building locally, winning globally” philosophy, they have made their presence felt in both developed markets and emerging economies such as Latin America, Africa, China and India. The Latin America segment covered SABMiller’s primary brewing and beverage operations in Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Honduras, Panama and Peru. In each country SABMiller was the leader of the market. The segment also bottled soft drinks for The Coca-Cola Company in El Salvador and Honduras, and for PepsiCo International in Panama. In Latin America, the company operated 17 breweries and 15 bottling plants. However, the global competition for Latin America was aggressive, there were other three multinationals trying to compete actively and conquer new territories globally. The Belgium-based Anheuser-Busch InBev, Dutch brewer Heineken, and Denmark’s Carlsberg, the four of them, including SABMiller, they brewed more than 50 per cent of the world’s beer and three of them were having a battle for the countries of Latin America, due the constant growth and profitability of the region.
