The Japanese brewer, Sapporo Breweries Ltd., has said it is targeting marginal growth of 0.4% in domestic beer sales for the current fiscal year to the end of December, 2003. That would put annual volumes at 77m cases.
Although the percentage growth target is small, it would represent something of a recovery for Sapporo which saw domestic beer sales decline by 8.6% in 2002.
