Stella to launch cider brand in GB
Anheuser-Busch InBev (AB Inbev) is to launch a cider brand under the Stella Artois brand name to tap into the growing popularity of the drink in Great Britain. Value sales of cider grew 60% to £2.2bn between 2005 and 2010, according to Mintel. Stella Cidre will compete with premium cider brands such as C&C Group’s Magners and Kopparberg. The move is the latest attempt by AB Inbev to exploit the Stella Artois brand. Stella Artois 4% launched in 2008 and has been credited with helping to revive sales of the beer in the UK. The brewer has since launched Stella Artois Black.
