Beverages (alcoholic) industry

Article Abstract:

The alcoholic beverage industry faces several challenges in 1997, but longterm prospects are generally favorable. Brewers face price competition and slow domestic volume trends, while distillers are hampered by weak demand in the U.S. and in crucial European markets. However, brisk expansion in overseas markets boosts longterm prospects. The short-term profit outlook for the industry is disappointing, but prospects improve over the next three to five years.

Beverages (alcoholic) industry

Article Abstract:

The long-term prospects for the brewing industry are improving due to the new emerging markets, although Anheuser-Busch Companies and others have suffered a competitive pricing environment in early 1998. The outlook for distillers is also positive from efficiency gains and foreign developing markets, and many in the industry are expanding their brand choices. Several of these stocks have potential for investors through the years 2001-2003.

Beverages (alcoholic) industry

Article Abstract:

Many companies in the brewing industry have been pinched by competitive pricing although overall industry volume in consumption has risen 4% since Sep 1997. Some markets for distillers, such as Japan, Western Europe, and North America are also facing flat or lower consumption, but several wine producers have expanded margins due to a good 1997 crop. The industry has several good stocks, although it is expected to lag the market in 1998.
