The crowded beer market in the country is poised to welcome two more established labels. Singapore-based Asia Pacific Breweries (APB) has decided to brew its international brands, Tiger and Heineken, in India and is looking for suitable locations.
Talking about the company's portfolio expansion, APB-India CEO Ashwin Deo said, "Currently, we are looking at consolidating our presence and will look at introducing new products at various price points in the next eight to 10 months."
Australia's beverage company Foster's Group Ltd has sold its brewing interests in India and Vietnam for $225 million, marking its exit from beer-making in Asia.
