According to Draft Mag, “at the end of the 20th century, Denmark had around a dozen breweries to its name, most conspicuously Carlsberg, one of the world’s largest brewers of industrial lager. A decade into the 21st century, the nation boasted almost 150 breweries.” This microbrewery boom brought in a large variety of craft beers that have tended to do especially well given that “the notoriously unstable Danish weather [caused] an increase in sales of craft beer due to people being driven away from the beaches and into bars or their own homes, where the consumption of craft and specialty beers is higher” (Euromonitor). On a competitive level, Denmark is a somewhat difficult market to compete in on a large scale. As stated by Euromonitor, “beer in Denmark continued to be highly consolidated with the two

  • Grimbergen and CARLSBERG GROUP
    CLIENT STORY Grimbergen AND CARLSBERG GROUP Burned, but not destroyed. Known for the stately gold phoenix on its label, Gimbergen beer is a unique drink. An abbey beer, Grimbergen got its start almost 900 years ago at the Grimbergen Abbey, in a little village just north of Brussels. While the setting was perfectly idyllic, the abbey was destroyed by three separate fires since 1128. Undeterred by hardship, the Grimbergen Fathers rebuilt the abbey time and time again—reviving their homemade beers each time. Today, Grimbergen beer maintains its legacy of hospitality, comfort, and good taste when you want to spoil yourself after a hard day of work, while ensuring a reliable experience. A welcoming pint of Grimbergen brings people together, just like it always has. In 2008 the Carlsberg Group, established in 1847 by master brewer J.C. Jacobsen, recognized the potential of bringing Grimbergen’s amazing beer and its story to markets outside of Belgium and helped launch large scale marketing campaigns to an international audience. One of the world’s leading brewery groups, the Carlsberg Group boasts over 140 brands in its portfolio of beer and other beverage brands and is committed to producing the beverages at the heart of moments that bring people together. Right now, the Carlsberg Group has more than 40,000 employees and sells its products in more than 150 markets. As the Group likes to say, they are living their purpose of brewing for a better today and tomorrow. To build on their legacy of success and keep pace with changing markets, Grimbergen wanted to shift their energy toward becoming a lifestyle brand—showcasing the unique stories and how Grimbergen is more than a beer—it’s an experience.

My name is Cees ’t Hart and I have with me, CFO, Heine Dalsgaard; and Vice President of Investor Relations, Peter Kondrup. I hope you and your families are all safe and well and that you’re all getting through these challenging times. As you probably noticed, we issued our Q3 announcement, including an upgrade of our full-year earnings expectation, already last night. The upgrade is done in light of strong performance in Q3, positive volume development in Russia and China at the beginning of Q4, solid execution of cost reduction; and this, despite the current uncertainty in rest of Europe. We are, of course, very pleased with the new outlook. As said at previous quarters this year, however, the pandemic is having a significant impact on our business. We continue to take steps to protect our people, support our communities and protect the commercial and financial health of the Group, both in short and long-term.

  • Maersk Line and the Future of Container Shipping
    9-712-449 REV: JUNE 1, 2012 FOREST L. REINHARDT RAMON CASADESUS - MASANELL FREDERIK NELLEMANN Maersk Line and the Future of Container Shipping There is a difference between just moving a container and moving it in the most sustainable, easy, and reliable way. And that difference is worth something to our customers. — Morten Engelstoft, Chief Operating Officer, Maersk Line, 2012 It was a cold February afternoon in 2012 as Søren Skou looked out the window of his office across the Copenhagen waterfront. Skou had just recently been promoted to become CEO of Maersk Line, the world’s largest container shipping company, and the flagship company of the Danish conglomerate A.P. Moller-Maersk Group. He was taking the reins at a difficult time: the sluggish global economy had severely depressed container rates, while fuel prices were still at record levels. On some trade routes, the company—like its competitors—wasn’t even meeting the costs of deploying its large and expensive container ships. Skou was confident that the company would pull through. After all, it had recently completed a successful turnaround following the Maersk Line’s first ever annual loss in 2009 and the Group benefited from a diverse holding of activities, which included an oil and gas business. However, Skou needed to assess whether Maersk Line was headed in the right direction, both to be able to compete in this slower market but also once the economy, and global trade, picked up. In 2010 the company had decided to focus on three differentiators to help it maintain its position as the global leader: reliability, ease-of-doing business, and environmental performance.
