LIVERPOOL brewer Cains is in talks with several major US importers and hopes to clinch a US export deal early in the new year.

The Toxteth-based firm expects to reap the rewards of a trade mission it took part in this September, when joint managing director Sudarghara Dusanj attended a key Las Vegas brewing convention, supported by the government-backed export agency UK Trade and Investment (UKTI) and regeneration agency Liverpool Vision.

His aim during the trade mission was to spread the word among American importers about Cains’ famous brewing heritage.

Since returning to the UK, Mr Dusanj revealed that Cains has been in negotiations with four prospective importers and he said he is confident a deal will be struck with at least one of their potential American partners within weeks.

Mr Dusanj said: “We are close to doing a deal with one of them in the New Year.

THE takeover battle for civil engineering consultancy Mouchel looks set to continue after rejected suitor VT Group said it still wanted to seal a deal.

VT confirmed today that it had put forward an offer of 250p per share for Mouchel, which has a 50% stake in the 20/20 Liverpool joint venture with Liverpool City Council.

Mouchel yesterday said it had “unanimously rejected” two offers from VT.  It said VT’s approached were “wholly inadequate and at a level which substantially undervalues the company.”

But VT said today: “The board of VT believes that a combination of VT and Mouchel represents a strategically compelling proposition. 
“The enlarged group would continue to have a strong focus on the public sector and its increased scale and enhanced capabilities would provide greater access to larger contract opportunities.

“The in
