1 2084 2003 In the past six years several deals have reshaped the global liquor industry leaving it dominated by international companies such as Diageo, France's Pernod-Ricard SA and London-based Allied Domecq. Marketing for these companies has meant putting large amounts of money into nationwide product launches and ad campaigns. The companies are having problems launching new products. If they don't catch on quickly they are pulled out from the market.
