External Growth & Premiumisation

Last update: 07/04/2008

The market in which the Group operates in is characterised by a few large global players managing a number of extremely strong brands and a large number of niche players operating successfully in more restricted product and/or or geographical ranges; the trend towards increasing concentration is a defining feature in the industry and has been going on for the last 15 years.
