drinktec: Also a hotspot for the milk industry
Milk is diversifying. Mixed milk drinks now already generate annual retail sales of around EUR 100 billion on the global market, i.e. roughly as much as the international market for standard milk products. The market for mixed milk drinks is growing rapidly, especially outside Europe. Market experts will therefore also examine this area during drinktec, the World’s Leading Trade Fair for the Beverage and Liquid Food Industry, in Munich from September 11 to 15, 2017.

Beer Business (Pivnoe Delo) #2-2017
Beer market of Russia 2016: PET goes to draft The beer market of Russia was warmed up by the hot summer, but the preparation for large volume PET prohibition has already impacted it negatively. The year was successful for Efes, MBC and regional producers; Carlsberg’s positions were virtually stable but AB InBev and Heineken lost a part of market share having focused on the sales profitability. The dynamics of big brands was determined by how much the companies were willing to keep the prices down or by their promotional activity. In this context the economy segment of the beer market and sales of inexpensive draft beer were increasing. The premium segment started shrinking due to license brands migrating to the mainstream segment.
Beer Business (Pivnoe Delo) #1-2017
Beer market of Vietnam: “Young tiger” Vietnam is one of the few big beer markets that continue to grow steadily. The beer popularity results from its low price, street consumption culture, and social motives. The outlooks of beer market as well as the Vietnamese economy inspire optimism, though the country is heavily dependent on export of goods. The state regulation can be called liberal, but the key risk for brewers is harbored in intensive rising of excise. Within TOP-4 there are two leaders, Sabeco and Heineken that grow at the fastest rates. The first company effectively employs its capacities, the second one focuses on marketing technologies. Almost 80% of the market belongs to century-old brands, yet the middle class and the youth are shifting their interest toward international premium that is growing taking share from the mainstream.
