Carlsberg reports drop in Coca-Cola sales in Denmark amid U.S. boycott


OSLO, April 29 (Xinhua) -- Danish brewer Carlsberg reported on Tuesday a decline in Coca-Cola sales in Denmark, attributing the trend to a local boycott of U.S. brands driven by political tensions.

"Our Coca-Cola volumes are slightly down in Denmark," Carlsberg CEO Jacob Aarup-Andersen said during an earnings call following the company's first-quarter results. "There is a level of consumer boycott around the U.S. brands, and it's the only market where we see that to a large extent."
