Imported Beers Show Growing Organic Sales

Looking for proof that advertising works? Dos Equis beer saw a 10% increase in sales in 2015. 

According to the Motley Fool, many imported beers are showing organic growth of around 6-7%, which is on par with craft beer's organic growth over the same time period.  Heineken, the parent company of Dos Equis, reported 7% organic growth for the first quarter of 2016. The drought-contributing Constellation Brands, who owns Corona, Modelo, and Pacifico, saw 15% growth over the first 6 months of 2016.

Constellation Brand's new 24-ounce can of Grupo Modelo's Pacifico brand is the top new import this year.
