Dutch brewing giant Heineken beat profit forecasts on Wednesday after cutting its global workforce by approximately 3,000 jobs. Overall sales grew by 1.6%, with the core Heineken brand up 5.3% thanks to demand for recent launches like Heineken Silver and the brewer’s non-alcoholic Heineken 0.0. Earlier this year, outgoing CEO Dolf van den Brink announced that Heineken was planning to cut approximately 7% of its workforce, responsible for 87,000 employees across 70 countries. Van den Brink told CNBC that the layoffs — which are now halfway toward initial projections — came “partly also due to AI, or let’s say digitization.” Heineken isn’t the only company pursuing a drastic restructuring plan.
