The European Commission has confirmed that Interbrew, the Belgian-based brewing group, will be probably allowed to retain its exclusive distribution contracts with pubs and restaurants in Belgium. After a two-year investigation, the EC is prepared to clear the agreements on the condition that Interbrew allows the pubs and restaurants also to sell competitor bottled brands. Tilman Luederk, the EU Commission spokesman, said: "We're saying in principle that the contracts are okay, but we will give competitors a chance to comment."
Interbrew has exclusive agreements with around 12,000 of the total 52,000 restaurants and pubs in the country.
