Belgium: InBev announced on December 2, 2004 it has moved its Corporate Offices to a new building (address: Brouwerijplein, 1 - 3000 Leuven), representing the company's journey "From Biggest to Best". The new InBev Corporate building is a nice blend between old and new. InBev dates back to 1366, and the brewery has always been rooted in the heart of the community in Leuven. The location of the building in front of the Stella Artois® brewery, as well as the materials used to construct it - i.e., red brick - demonstrate the respect and pride of its local heritage. The interior of the building is very innovative, from an open-plan workspace, the latest IT applications, all the way to the ergonomic furniture and interior design: everything breathes future.
Throughout the process, InBev has kept its employees as a priority for every decision which was taken in the design and construction. For example, the architecture of the building is such that every employee has direct sunlight at his/her desk, and its two creative rooms are furnished with the idea of stimulating brainstorming sessions. The new InBev Corporate offices will house approximately 570 people.
The company will organize an official inauguration ceremony on 25 January 2005, to which the press is invited, and at which a guided tour of the building will be given. More details to follow. "InBev is a world-class company where people share one vision, and come together to work hard, achieve their goals, and celebrate their successes", said John Brock, CEO of InBev.
InBev is a publicly traded company (Euronext: INB) based in Leuven, Belgium. The company's origins date back to 1366, and today it is the leading global brewer by volume.
