Poor weather this summer and low consumer confidence hit sales of Heineken beer in the third quarter, the company said in a trading update on Wednesday.


Heineken, the third biggest brewing group in the world, said sales were up in Africa, Asia and Latin America.
Total third quarter sales rose 13% to €4.62bn from €4.07bn a year earlier but were down 2.1% excluding acquisitions, including Mexican brewing group Femsa Cerveza.
