My guess is that InBev will use this mess to finally break and takeover the Distribution network. They wanted to eliminate it when they bought AHB in 2008 but the distributor network was too strong, but they did end up getting some of the bigger ones to buy out smaller ones. Now with the mess they created they may use this to finally take total control of the network to cut costs and improve earnings.
This will be worth watching over the next year to see what happens. Smaller distributors will not be able to weather that kind of change as to sales and a lot of distributors are going to hurt and some looking for a way out.
i wonder how cindy mccain is doing?
