Asahi Tops Kirin in Japan Beer Sales
Asahi Breweries Ltd. regained the lead in Japan beer sales from Kirin Holdings Co. as demand in the nation fell for a sixth straight year in 2010.
Asahi had a 37.5 percent share of shipments for standard beer, low-malt and no-malt beer last year, ahead of Kirin’s 36.7 percent. Asahi said demand for its “Super Dry” and “Clear Asahi” brands helped maintain the company’s market share unchanged from 2009.
