It wasn’t too long ago that Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth took to the airwaves to make an emotional appeal to American consumers boycotting Bud Light: their actions would hurt his employees most.

Now it looks as if the disastrous plunge in demand for the once-popular lager may have prompted the first staff layoffs at the brand’s parent company, according to its local Missouri paper, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

 
I always thought Bud Lite was crap to begin with. But they failed to understand who their customers were. The Anheuser Busch brands are stacked to the ceiling in beer caves and they can't keep Modelo in stock. The message to others needs to be, stick to what you do and stay out of woke nonsense. As someone here once commented, the quiet majority is waking up to this gender insanity and are beginning to put their foot down.

Is this an example of "get woke, go broke?"
 
If your unsure about gender, there is a simple solution:

Typical soft shell CEO looking for an out, that’s that now, implementation of Option 6 or is it 7 now? What comes after the first round of layoffs, you know they have a list of other measures possibilities.

“It’s just one can” didn’t cut it.
These corporate decisions are made and agreed upon by a board not an individual, so the marketing VP got launched which was way too long after the collapse and of course with indecisive hesitation probably again, for identity politics.
They played their cards based on social governance compliance rather than remain steadfast to commonly accepted marketing practices. A bit late to the social pioneering game. They followed the wrong leader. They took a social political stance to a draw favor. And still refuse to acknowledge or admit clearly the intention and the fail.
Happens to the best of companies when the product fails to live up to an array of standards. Not every storm can be weathered.

A-B is going to poor-mouth, hacking away at the employee rolls where it gets the most public attention and it seemly again - puts that same blame on the consumer that won’t buy the product all over again.

Seems a Bail-Out is brewing.
So now what, A-B is going to stiff some creditors? Look for a Gubmint handout to regroup?
They’ve already and will continue to blame and accuse the consumer sentiment rather than take the hit. There are other ways to alleviate layoff, rearrangements and cutbacks should have been forthcoming sooner, but punishing by layoff of the the low level employee is not going to be benefit the company on a whole and says a lot about the the upper management.

Yes A-B needs to take a look down where it counts. Grab what matters and take control.

Remember. AB isn’t AB. It’s InBev. The Busch family has no interest or control.

Not that I don’t agree with your point, but Modelo and AB brands are all owned by InBev. Along with about 20 plus other brewing companies…
Mabye Bud Light should’ve taken notes from Modelo’s marketing team…

InBev and AB do not own Modelo.
They have rights to distribute in certain parts of the world and they own a small stake of the parent company as does Constellation brands. Groupo Modelo has control of their own brand worldwide.

Im in the business and represent Modelo among many other brands

Constellation Brands, Inc. owns the brand license for Corona and Modelo in the U.S. to import, market, and sell, exclusively and perpetually.

I stand corrected.
In the US Modelo is represented by Constellation, outside the US, AB/InBev for distribution.
Both are overseen by Groupo Modelo…

In the end, and my real point was… regardless of if you boycott bud light and buy Modelo, the money is funneled up to the same source, Groupo Modelo. Be it via Consteallation or AB/Inbev.

Not correct either.
If you buy Modelo in the US, the money goes to Constellation brands. Not AB/Inbev
So buy all the Modelo and Corona i the US you want . INBev doesnt see a dime
 
well....

the Mrs and I buy toyota's.

i bought Glocks, Sigs, CZ's, RIA's, Fiocchi, S&B ammo, and stuff at walmart with products made all over the world..

my money goes to the store, where i buy my stuff.........

it goes into thier cash registers.

where it goes from there........??

the American factories?


the foreign owners of those companies selling or building here in America..??

i dunno, i don't care.

a boycott on 1 particular product is a boycott on THAT product.

the overall sales/profits of that ONE particular product, must answer to the holding company or corporation, or share holders.
 
If you’re that confused, go buy a Miller Lite or Coors light 😉🙂
LOL..
If I’m gonna drink beer.. I’m not drinking any of that **** anyways…. Craft/IPA, real beer.

I’m a vodka tonic guy now a days…helps with my 2XL Slim frame. LOL
Thanks KF for the course correct, goes to show, a quick search is usually wrong… unless you dig in and read the fine print :)
Apologies Hayes…
