Kahn says international capacity will be lifted to 20-million hectolitres within three years. The group aims to enter Kenya shortly and Ethiopia thereafter, and Angola beckons but for war. Our philosophy is simple. We concentrate on the consumer, not the competitor. We aim at the mass market, not the fringes, and we believe that a leading market share should be twice that of the closest competitor.
Critical mass is what matters.
Kahn says there will never be a beer equivalent of the Coca Cola brand, and SAB will give consumers the brands they want. The group's expansion is balanced by Belron, the offshore operations of Plate Glass. Kahn says Belron is a humdinger of a business which can operate properly only in mature markets with strong currencies, first-world legal requirements, and so on. Documents supporting any offer made to American investors are prepared by American lawyers because errors and omissions can lead to class action and financial ruin. Belron's Globe Glass and Windshields America are among the subjects of a federal grand jury investigation in America.
