According to the terms of the second agreement, which will be called DHN Drinks, Heineken and Diageo will each own 42.25% of the JV, while Namibia Breweries will own the remaining 15.5%. According to a statement by both companies, Heineken's total net investment in these new ventures will be 260 million euros ($401 million), while Diageo will invest 100 million pounds ($202 million) in the first two years. One of the challenges facing both of these projects will be the chronic power-shortages that have been plaguing South Africa. However, the opportunity to challenge SABMiller's dominance in the local market is clearly not something Heineken is willing to let pass by.
Following a lengthy battle, Heineken won back its rights to brew and distribute Amstel Lager in South Africa in March 2007 when the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce ruled in its favor. SABMiller had said that the loss of the Amstel contract would cost it $80 million a year in profits, as the beer represented 9% of its beer volumes in South Africa. Following this ruling, Amstel announced that it was looking to establish a brewery in South Africa as soon as possible, while sourcing Amstel beer from its breweries in Europe until this could be built.
