Company Description

Smaller brewers are green with envy. Heineken, one of the world's brewing giants, sells its namesake beer in its signature green bottle in just about every country on the planet. The Dutch brewer operates more than 140 breweries in 70-plus countries. Its other well-known brands include Amstel and Kingfisher. In addition to its own brands, the company boasts about 170 international, regional, and specialty beers, including Murphy's Irish Red (Europe), Cordoba (Argentina), and Tiger (Asia). As part of its business, Heineken also distributes wine, soft drinks and other beverages. To get a leg up in Latin America, Heineken acquired the Mexican brewer of Sol and Tecate beers -- FEMSA Cerveza -- in 2010.

            Competitive Landscape Brief

            Demand is driven by consumer preferences in alcohol consumption and demographic trends. The profitability of individual companies depends on effective sales operations and maintaining low operating costs. Large companies have advantages in exclusive distribution rights in large markets. Small operations can compete effectively by distributing rare and expensive products. The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per employee is about $530,000 for beer wholesalers and $750,000 for wine and distilled spirits wholesalers.
