ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia (AP) -- An Ethiopian official says Heineken has won a $163 million bid to buy two state-owned breweries.
Private and Public Enterprises Supervising Agency spokesman Wondafrash Assefa said Tuesday the Netherlands-based brewer wants to expand the breweries and introduce other products, possibly including nonalcoholic beverages, in the East African nation.
A Heineken spokesman told The Associated Press by phone that the company had not been notified about the government's final decision on the bid.
