Answer
Anna,

According to AllExperts, you've not read the reply.

Is this so?  Or is there a problem with AllExperts?

__ PREVIOUS ANSWER ___
As I know, Britvic have major operations in the UK and Eire; and have international distribution for products such as Robinsons in NL and Scandi.

I'm familiar with the Montenegro market, and do not recall seeing Britvic products there.  I know that some Britvic products appear in other places in CE, but usually through local importers or Tesco - who for example, consider Tango an "exotic" taste.

Pepsi, which is core to Britvic, have deals in Montenegro and Macedonia.  The Montenegrin company is called DEC; and it reports into the A&P group out of Cyprus.  I'm not acquainted with operations in Macedonia.

Why not contact Britvic directly?  Are you looking for help with making the contact?

If, on a side note, you're looking to take advantage of the processes and back office systems that Pepsi and Britvic use to handle pre-sales, van sales, dispatch and settlement, consider www.salessuite.net.  This group have experience providing systems for Britvic (in the UK), Pepsi throughout Europe and Asia, including Montenegro (and Kosovo and Serbia); and could be of tremendous help.
