Nigeria: AB InBev expects investments in Nigeria brewery to reach $400 mln
Anheuser-Busch InBev (AB InBev), the worlds largest beer maker, expects the total investment in its new brewery at Sagamu in Nigeria, to be up to $400 million, Chief Executive Carlos Brito was quoted as saying by Reuters on May 22.
The $250 million brewery has already started operation and capacity will be expanded in phases, Brito told reporters at a media briefing in Johannesburg, without giving a timeline for the next phase.
Nigeria (is) becoming a more and more important market as we grow in that market, he said.
I mean were growing double digits, we didnt grow in the past as fast because we were lacking capacity and now that we have capacity, strong brands and (a) great group of people were challenging the status quo there.
