We asked alcoholic beverages analyst Zsuza Szilagyi, from Euromonitor Internation, whether following last weeks announcement of the potential $20bn tie-up he believed AB InBevs takeover of Modelo could spark further industry consolidation, and if so, who it would involve?
Szilagyi noted that global beer industry consolidation was already very high, with the top five global brewers AB InBev, SAB Miller, Heineken, Carlsberg are the top four accounting for nearly half of global beer volumes
