An ambitious next chapter in our growth story. We are happy to announce that we have completed the acquisition of the leading international soft drinks business Britvic plc to create a single integrated beverage company in the UK. The combined business will be called Carlsberg Britvic. With the transaction now complete, we are excited to create a highly attractive supplier of beer and soft drinks in the UK, with an efficient supply chain and distribution network. With this acquisition, we are also strengthening our existing relationship with PepsiCo, becoming their largest bottling partner in Europe. "Soft drinks is an attractive category that also brings significant synergies in combination with beer," says Carlsberg Group CEO Jacob Aarup-Andersen. "We’re delighted to welcome all our new Britvic colleagues to the Carlsberg Group," he adds. Read full announcement: https://lnkd.in/d57SJNtg #CarlsbergBritvic
