C&C Group expected to report significant U.S. cider volume growth
C&C paid about 20 million euros ($26 million) for U.S. brand Hornsby’s last year and MillerCoors LLC, the U.S. joint venture between SABMiller Plc and Molson Coors Brewing Co. (TAP), bought Crispin Cider Co. in February for an undisclosed sum. The Irish company is set to report first-half results tomorrow, and analysts at Davy in Dublin estimate volume growth of as much as 30 percent in the U.S., excluding Hornsby’s.
