SABMiller


SABMiller is one of the world's top three brewers, jostling rivals Anheuser-Busch and InBev for the top spot. The group was formed from the merger in 2002 of South African Breweries with US-based Miller Brewing, and established a major presence in Latin America in 2005 with the acquisition of Grupo Bavaria, the region's second largest brewer. SABMiller lacks a single strong global brand, but controls a number of regional favourites including Castle Lager from South Africa, Pilsner Urquell from the Czech Republic, Peroni from Italy and Miller Beer from the US. In 2007, the group agreed to merge its US operations with those of competitor Molson Coors to create a stronger rival to local giant Anheuser. Advertising Age estimated global measured advertising expenditure of $321m in 2006, making SABMiller the world's #85 advertiser.
