Revenue from its international business leapt 36% YoY to $3.45m (THB76.45b) from revenue growth in Grand Royal Group as well as contribution from its new subsidiaries, Asiaeuro International Beverage in Hong Kong and Guangdong.

Its international beer business posted a 44% growth in sales revenue driven by Sabeco, which has been consolidated into its earnings since Q2. With this, DBS Group Research expects its regionalisation strategy to aid its earnings growth, it said in a report.
