LONDON, March 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Soft drink companies such as Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc. (NYSE: CCE) have been focusing on healthier drinks in the developed world. Meanwhile, emerging markets are expected to be key growth drivers for soft drink companies as well as brewers such as Molson Coors Brewing Company (NYSE: TAP), and Anheuser-Busch InBev NV (NYSE: BUD). Rising income levels in emerging markets has also boosted demand for wines and other premium alcoholic drinks, which should benefit companies such as Diageo Plc (NYSE: DEO). Beverage stocks ended mostly lower in Thursday's trading session as the broad market came under pressure due to mounting concerns over Cyprus's bailout.
