USA, TX: Anheuser-Busch announces $22.5 mln investment in its Houston brewery
Anheuser-Busch announced on August 29 a $22.5 million investment in its Houston brewery, which includes upgrades to the facilitys internal systems to enhance workplace safety and improve brewery efficiency. Anheuser-Busch has a long history of commitment to being a strong partner to the communities it calls home, and these upcoming local investments reflect the brewers dedication to delivering the highest-quality beer and other beverages to consumers while driving economic prosperity around the country.
Investing in our people and in our communities to drive economic prosperity is part of who we are, said Brendan Whitworth, CEO of Anheuser-Busch. Were excited that this $22 million investment will improve the work environment for our frontline employees while also serving as engine of economic growth for Houston and surrounding areas. Were proud to reinforce our decades-long dedication to our employees and communities through continued investments in our facilities across the country.
Anheuser-Busch has been a member of the Houston community for almost 60 years, and the brewer continues to reiterate its commitment through ongoing investments like this one. Last year, the brewer implemented water reuse technology at the Houston brewery to reclaim more than 100 million gallons of water each year. Building on this success with the addition of the most efficient cooling system will help the company continue to make great beer for all Americans to enjoy.
The upgrade to our cooling system will enable us to stay at the forefront of brewery safety and efficiency standards, said Ryan Hudgins, General Manager, Anheuser-Busch Houston Brewery. By transitioning to this new system, we not only have a positive impact on employees, but also conserves resources for the local Houston community.
The $22.5 million investment includes an upgrade to the Houston brewerys cooling system, improving workplace safety and reducing electricity consumption by 2,180,000kwh per year. To equip the brewery with a modern, highly efficient system, the existing cooling system will be completely removed and repositioned to ensure improved functionality. A free-standing structure will also be added to house the evaporative condensers. The Houston brewerys new cooling system will be fully operational by Q4 2023.
This investment builds on the success of the brewers capital expenditure program, which included an investment of $1 billion over two years in 2021 to help accelerate the nations recovery following the pandemic and drive economic prosperity in the communities where the brewer operates. Across the United States, Anheuser-Busch operates more than 120 facilities, including 12 flagship breweries, 14 agricultural facilities, and 19 craft partner breweries, across 24 states. In Texas, more than 1,000 people work in Anheuser-Buschs facilities and nearly 6,000 are a part of the larger Anheuser-Busch distributor family. Anheuser-Buschs work in Texas creates more than $1.4 billion in capital investments, significantly contributing to the states economic growth.
