Foster's tackles tough Indian market

Article Abstract:

Carlton and United Breweries launched its signature brand, Foster's, in India in Jun 1998. The company has been bolder than other international beer manufacturers who have avoided the competitive Indian market. Many fear entering licensing arrangements with Indian manufacturers without equity investment. Foreign brands, like America's Strohs and Germany's Beck's, have not been successful in India.
