'We're doing well, but we
can do much better'. Under
this motto Heineken has
devised a new strategy in
which the principal aim is to
achieve uncontested leader
ship in the premium image
segment. In contrast to the
mainstream segment, there
are still plenty of growth
opportunities for premium
beer. And Heineken beer is
the pre-eminent brand to
seize those opportunities.
