By Arthur Asiimwe"KIGALI (Reuters) - Rwanda's sole soft-drink maker and brewer plans to increase beverage production by 13 percent in 2008 to meet swelling local and foreign demand, its chief executive said on Friday.
"We are not fully satisfying local demand. We are currently working hard to increase capacity in our plants so that the ever increasing demand meets a steady supply," said Door Plantege, CEO of Brasseries et Limonaderies du Rwanda (BRALIRWA).
Soft drink volumes would increase to 420,000 hectolitres in 2008 from 390,000 hectolitres in the previous year while beer would rise to slightly above 700,000 from 600,000, she told Reuters.
Plantege said demand for the company's beer products was increasing in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda."
