Japanese brewing¹ and food groups Kirin and Suntory are considering a merger³.

日本酿酒公司、食品集团Kirin和Suntory考虑合并。

$If the merger goes ahead it will create the world\$
If the merger goes ahead it will create the world\'s fifth largest food group

The move would create the world's fifth-largest food group by sales, just behind Kraft Foods and Pepsico.

Analysts⁵ welcomed the announcement, saying a merged⁶ firm would be able to dominate in Japan's fiercely competitive food and drinks market.

While Suntory is privately⁷ owned, shares in Kirin rose 8.4% following the news. If the two firms agree to merge², the deal will need regulatory approval.

"If a merger is realised, that would give them the market share to take leadership in pricing and help their soft drinks businesses - a chronic⁸ weak spot in a ultra-competitive market," said JP Morgan analyst⁴ Naomi Takagi.

"It's a huge positive if they can do it."
