 Brewery News
Vietnam: Krones AG laying the foundation stone for a new brewery in Ho Chi Minh-City
Krones AG, Neutraubling, Germany, announced on March 2 it is taking responsibility
to build complete brewery for Sabeco in Saigon.
It’s the first time
that Krones AG, Neutraubling, Germany, the globally operating manufacturer of bottling
and packaging machinery, has also tackled construction work on such a large scale
for one of its clients. Early this year, Vietnam’s leading brewery, Saigon Beer,
Alcohol and Beverages (Sabeco), began construction of its biggest brewery, in the
Cu Chi industrial zone of Ho Chi Minh City.
For around 120 million US dollars,
it is building here a brewery dimensioned for an initial capacity of 1 million hl,
which is scheduled to start operation within a mere 17 months, by mid-2007. The first
filled bottle of beer will be leaving the brewery in May 2007. Krones bears overall
responsibility for the entire construction work and the equipment as well. A quintessentially
turnkey project.
Krones has thus taken fully on board the EPC (engineering,
procurement, construction) idea, which subsumes the construction of the building,
the entire engineering and the organisation of all subsuppliers. Krones is the main
contractor, handling overall project management, with ultimate responsibility for
both equipment and the construction work. The job package covers the buildings and

Italy: SABMiller launches $50 million Peroni campaign
SABMiller plc, one of the world’s leading brewers, announced on March 2 that
it will invest US$50 million over the next 18 months in a new global brand campaign
for its international premium beer Peroni Nastro Azzurro. The campaign will incorporate
a range of advertising and marketing initiatives based around an adaptation of Fellini’s
1960 masterpiece ‘La Dolce Vita’ – a film that encapsulated the essence of Italian
style and spurred a global affection for all things Italian. The programme, which
will roll out in the UK in April, will be followed by launches in the US, South Africa
and Romania. The campaign will include cinema advertising, print and outdoor billboards
set in the home of La Dolce Vita and Birra Peroni - Rome.
The new investment
follows a year of successful rebranding of Peroni Nastro Azzurro in the UK and the
introduction of the brand into the US, Romania and South Africa. Positioned as an
icon of Italian style, Peroni has enjoyed positive growth in its international markets
supported by creative marketing initiatives including Emporio Peroni – the exclusive
non-shop shop on Sloane Street, London, high class brand association with other trendsetting
categories, and innovative point of sale collaterals

Philippines: San Miguel beats forecasts with profit rise
San Miguel Corp., the largest Philippine food and drinks company, reported a 3.3
% rise in 2005 net profit on Friday, March 3 beating expectations of a fall, thanks
to contributions from overseas acquisitions, according to Reuters.
The Philippines'
second-largest company said that after a difficult year of weak domestic beer sales,
higher raw material costs and taxes, it was upbeat about prospects for 2006, largely
due to its expanded foreign operations. "We will benefit from an expanded product
mix and diversified business. Indeed today, San Miguel has a much more solid foundation
for consistent, long-term growth," Finance Director Ferdinand Constantino said in
a briefing to investors.
San Miguel generated unaudited net income of about
9.15 billion pesos ($179 million) last year against restated net profit of 8.86 billion
pesos in 2004, confirming an earlier report by Reuters.
Analysts had forecast
net profit of 7.67 billion pesos for 2005, according to Reuters Estimates.
Group
revenues climbed 30 percent to 227 billion pesos in 2005, bolstered by San Miguel's
$1.5 billion purchase last year of Australia's largest dairy firm, National Foods,
its biggest deal yet.
President Ramon Ang told investors the group was
still mulling an IPO of its Australian
