In 1998, foreign operations made up 45% of the company's $3 billion in worldwide beer sales. SAB is looking to expand further in Africa and Asia...

They walk in wearing street clothes, step into a storage closet and emerge, in body socks and hoods, as the Samurai, Red Tornado, Black Panther, Golden Lion.
