Free beer after an accident.
Brazil - the world's second-largest beer maker, is considering closing two factories in northeastern Brazil as "an extreme measure" after a court ordered the company to sell beer and soft drinks in the region at a money-losing price, the company said on Friday in a statement.
"Heineken is in a court dispute with Grupo LGH referring to the prices to sell its portfolio in the states of Pernambuco and Paraiba", the statement said. A court decision mandates Heineken to sell beer and soft drinks below cost to a local distributor, the company said.
