Actualité publiée le 24/06/16 03:00

C&C Group is proud to announce that it will strengthen its relationship with San Miguel in Asia through a new distribution partnership in Taiwan. In February this year, the two companies forged a distribution partnership in Thailand and will now extend this relationship to Taiwan.

San Miguel will work closely with C&C to expand distribution, sales and marketing of Magners Cider in Taiwan. Taiwan is currently the largest cider market in Asia with volumes in excess of 20,000HL per annum. The market is presently growing at 69% year on year in volume terms, making this one of the most lucrative cider opportunities currently available in Asia.

Conor Hardy, Regional Director of C&C Group’s Asia Pacific Division, said:“This is a fantastic opportunity for C&C Group to extend its partnership with San Miguel to another key Asian market. Given the attractive cider growth trajectory we observe in Taiwan this synergistic collaboration will strengthen Magners route to market and will position Magners to participate in future category growth.”

Carlos Berba, MD of San Miguel Brewing International Ltd., said: “We, at San Miguel Brewing International, are delighted to expand its strategic partnership with C&C group, giving both companies the opportunity to bring Magners to Taiwan’s rapidly growing cider market. Magners Cider is an exciting addition to our diversified portfolio that currently includes San Miguel Pale Pilsen, San Mig Light, San Miguel Cerveza Negra, Red Horse, Samuel Adams and Angry Orchard.”

San Miguel Company Taiwan Limited will begin sales of Magners from 1st July 2016 nationwide in Taiwan.
