PROFILE |
 |
Diageo is heading straight for the pub. Created by the merger of Grand Metropolitan and Guinness, the company owns Guinness/UDV which combines the world's #1 seller of spirits (Smirnoff vodka, Johnnie Walker Scotch) with one of the world's oldest names in beer -- Guinness (Guinness stout and other beers). Diageo also owns 34% of Moet Hennessy (spirits). In order to concentrate on drinking, Diageo is selling The Pillsbury Company to General Mills, plans to take its Burger King business public, and has also put its Guinness World Records unit on the block. Diageo agreed in late 2000 to buy the drinks operations of Seagram, after beating out a rival bid from Bacardi and Brown-Forman.
