Empresa Angolana de Cervejas is producing 53.3 million litres of beer per month at its factory in the Cambambe municipality of Kwanza Norte province, the factory’s production director, Mateus Isabel Matumona, was quoted as saying by Macauhub on October 30.
He also said the company’s production was capable of supplying the Angolan market and that the brewer was analysing the possibility of exporting to neighbouring markets.
He noted that current production at the factory was based on two bottling lines, the first of which (the oldest) has capacity to fill 20,000 bottles per hour, and the second to fill 35,000 bottles per hour.
He said that, as well as EKA beer, the Dondo factory also makes Nocal beer. The company buys its raw materials from companies in South Africa, France and Belgium.
EKA, which is considered to be one of the biggest production units in the province, alongside the Cambambe hydroelectric dam, is also the province’s biggest taxpayer.
Empresa Angolana de Cervejas was founded in 1969 and sold its first products on the market in January 1972.
