Nadine Sarwat: A $20+ Cocktail... In This Economy?

In this episode, American & European Beverages Analyst Nadine discusses the hot topic of spirits pricing. Diageo intends to introduce brands at price points it had previously ignored and to selectively execute price repositioning certain brands in certain geographies, Brown-Forman’s pricing power is also in focus as cost pressures are set to intensify, and all of this is against the backdrop of the ongoing cyclical vs. structural debate in US alcohol. So many investors have been wondering… should distillers adopt a tobacco-like strategy of using stronger price to offset volume decline? Or should distillers actually cut pricing to stimulate demand in an environment where affordability is under pressure? Today Nadine rolls up her sleeves and digs into this debate and more!
