Consolidation in the drinks bottling business has continued apace in 2011 – and, we're only a month in. Last week, Embotelladoras Arca said it would merge with its Mexican rival, Grupo Continental, to create what the two firms claim is the second largest bottling group in Latin America, behind Coca-Cola FEMSA.

First-up, this month sees yours truly sit down – finally - with Stella David, the CEO of William Grant & Sons.

Until next time...
