Malaysia: Both Malaysia’s leading brewers seeing early signs of earnings stagnation
|
The skies are looking rather overcast over Malaysia’s brewers, Carlsberg Brewery Malaysia Bhd and Heineken Malaysia Bhd, as consumers are buying fewer rounds of drinks amid rising living costs, higher input costs and ongoing subsidy reforms. Once considered market darlings for their resilience and dividends, both companies are seeing early signs of earnings stagnation as tighter discretionary spending takes a toll, The Edge Malaysia reported on July 28.
A lift from tourism due to Malaysia’s role as Asean 2025 chair and the upcoming Visit Malaysia Year 2026 is hoped to offer some support, but with foreign visitors historically contributing less than 10% of total beer sales, the potential upside remains limited.
For now, the brewery sector’s appeal lies largely with long-term income investors drawn to its stable 4% to 5% dividend yields, as recovery is likely to be slow, say market experts.
For the first quarter ended March 31, 2025 (1QFY2025), Heineken Malaysia registered a net profit of RM122.15 million, largely unchanged from RM122.48 million during the same period last year, while revenue fell 3.24% to RM763.63 million, from RM789.17 million. Earnings were supported by lower interest expenses, effective cost control and improved financial efficiency, following the Chinese New Year festivities.

Nigeria: New Benue Brewery to offer direct employment to at least 400 persons in first two phases of operation
|
The Group Managing Director (GMD) of the Benue Investment and Property Company Limited (BIPC), Dr. Raymond Asemakaha, has disclosed that the newly built Benue Brewery will offer direct employment to at least 400 persons in the first and second phases of its operation, aside from the potential for over 1,000 indirect jobs, The Guardian reported on August 1.
The GMD addressed newsmen while taking delivery of 16 containers of equipment for the brewery at the company’s corporate headquarters in Makurdi.
Dr. Asemakaha, who was in the company of other top-ranking staff, revealed that the brewery, christened the Food Basket Brewery, has a production capacity of 10,000 crates per day and is positioned to tap into the estimated ₦1 billion monthly beer consumption market in Benue State.
He said that the 16 containers the company has taken custody of represent the first batch of 50 containers of equipment expected from the People’s Republic of China.
The GMD also disclosed that the machinery delivered so far was one of the dividends of Governor Hyacinth Alia’s recent visit to China, which was aimed at attracting investment to Benue State.
He further explained that expatriates from China are already on their way to Nigeria to begin the installation of

USA: Craft beer segment records its biggest reading of the year in Beer Purchasers’ Index
|
While still in contractionary territory (<50), the craft segment recorded its highest reading of the year in the National Beer Wholesalers Association‘s Beer Purchasers’ Index (BPI), Craft Brewing Business reported on August 4.
BPI is the only forward-looking indicator for distributors to measure expected beer demand. The index surveys beer distributors’ purchases across different segments and compares them to previous years. A reading greater than 50 indicates the segment is expanding, while a reading below 50 indicates the segment is contracting.
The overall BPI reading of 42 marks a 17-point decline from July 2024 but a 12-point month-to-month improvement from June 2025. The combination of index readings for at-risk inventory (43) and BPI (42) places the beer industry firmly in a cautionary holding pattern for the summer.
Across BPI segments:
• The imports index at 50 is 12 points above June 2025 and 23 points lower than July 2024
• The craft index at 25 is 10 points above June 2025 and five points lower than July 2024
• The premium lights index at 38 is five points above June 2025 and 25 points lower than July 2024

USA: AB InBev to invest $9 mln in its brewery in Baldwinsville, New York
|
Brewing giant Anheuser-Busch announced on August 5 it will invest $9 million this year to make improvements to its big brewery just outside of Baldwinsville, Syracuse.com reported.
The work will help expand the local brewery’s capacity to make “non beer” products like NÜTRL Vodka Seltzer and Skimmers Vodka Iced Tea, the company said in a news release.
Such products, which are a fast-growing sector of the alcohol market, have long been a specialty of the brewery located off Route 31 in the Radisson business park. As an example, Anheuser-Busch chose this brewery to launch its Bud Light Hard Seltzer line in 2021 and before that its Lime-A-Rita brand.
The plant is the largest brewery in New York state, bigger than Genesee in Rochester and F.X. Matt (Saranac) in Utica.
The new investment at what the company calls the “Baldwinsville brewery” also includes equipment maintenance and updates to the brewery’s refrigeration units. The company says it has invested $90 million in the Baldwinsville brewery in the past five years.
“Anheuser-Busch is committed to supporting the communities where our employees live and work,” said Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth, in the news release. “Investments in our facilities like our Baldwinsville brewery help us to enhance our operations while

USA: Boston Beer founder Jim Koch returns as CEO
|
The Boston Beer Company announced on August 1 a leadership change effective August 15, 2025. Michael Spillane has decided to step down as CEO to focus on important personal matters. He will remain on the company’s board of directors, on which he has served since 2014, now in the capacity of a non-executive director.
Jim Koch, Boston Beer founder, brewer and chairman of the board, will assume the role of CEO. Koch was previously CEO of Boston Beer from its founding in 1984 until January 2001 and has remained chairman since 1984.
“Michael has been with Boston Beer for nearly 10 years, first as a board member and most recently as CEO for the past year and a half,” said Koch. “He’s given us a steady leadership hand during a dynamic time for our industry, and under his guidance, we delivered one of our most profitable quarters in many years in the second quarter. I appreciate everything Michael has done for us, and we're thrilled he’s going to continue to help shape our strategy as a member of our board of directors.

Luxembourg: Luxembourg pubs may soon be able to expand their beer offer beyond standard pils
|
Luxembourg’s rigid conditions forcing pubs to carry only one brewery’s brands may open a crack in coming months, allowing craft beer fans the option of a cloudy IPA or other artisanal style beyond their standard pils, Luxembourg Times reported on August 4.
The country’s largest brewery, Brasserie Nationale de Luxembourg, is going on record telling bar operators dependent on selling its Bofferding and Battin brews that they can also offer products from smaller Luxembourg craft brewers without violating their exclusivity contracts.
Those contracts are serious business for pub operators in a country where different units of the country’s biggest brewer and runner-up Diekirch not only supply their primary product but also may own the bar’s premises and the alcohol licence needed to operate.
“The customer now has at least a little more choice in a bar,” said Joël Back, co-founder of the Twisted Cat beer brewery. Nearly two dozen bars have started selling its beers since the Confédération des Brasseries et des Brasseurs du Luxembourg (CBBL) sent a statement about an agreement quietly reached two years ago with Brasserie Nationale, allowing the bars controlled through exclusive contracts to sell specialty beers by other CBBL members.
The confederation also includes the makers of Twisted Cat,

Nigeria: Bature Brewery promoting move to independent beer brands among Nigerian consumers
|
Nigerian beer producer Bature Brewery is doing what it can to dissuade consumers from buying big beer and instead move to independent brands, The Drinks Business reported on August 4.
Bature Brewery has already set a goal to get to 500 locations across the country selling its products within the next year and a half, according to Reuters, which identified how it is already making headway on its target.
Research from Business Research Insights recently identified how, globally, the craft beer sector is forecast to triple to more than US$250 billion by 2033, meaning that independent breweries can still steal market share from bigger beer businesses such as AB InBev, Diageo and Heineken.
Craft brewers are facing myriad challenges in Nigeria at present such as the devaluation of the naira that has seen the price of imported raw materials spike. However, the opportunities for craft expansion are evident since, according to Statista data, Nigeria’s total beer market is still valued at US$7 billion annually.
Describing the opportunity, Bature co-founder Kevin Conroy said: “We know there is more demand. Our goal is to get to 500 locations selling our products by the next 18 months. We are aiming to be doing 100,000 litres per month

Zimbabwe: Ingwebu Breweries commended by government for its packaging plant investment
|
The Zimbabwe government has commended Ingwebu Breweries for its US$2.5 million investment into its new aco-friendly packaging plant, The Drinks Business reported on August 4.
The polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plant, which is located in Bulawayo, has been reported for being fundamental to the region’s re-industrialisation drive and has been lauded by officials as a forward move for the city’s ecosystem and its brewing sector.
Ingwebu Breweries has historically been known for its sorghum beer packaged in traditional containers, however now that the company is expanding into PET packaging, it is expected to “improve product preservation while catering for modern consumer preferences”.
Owned by the Bulawayo Municipal Commercial Undertaking, Ingwebu’s investment is being hailed for being a “state-of-the-art facility” which “marks a strategic shift from traditional returnable containers to modern, recyclable PET bottles, thereby improving efficiency, sustainability and product accessibility”.
Ingwebu Breweries special advisor to the president responsible for monitoring implementation of government programmes, Dr Jorum Gumbo said: “Government support to the private sector is multi-faceted, with a top priority being the creation of a conducive and enabling environment that allows business to not only operate, but to thrive.”
The project was funded through a US$1,95 million loan facility from Ecobank Zimbabwe and ZB Bank, and

World: Jack Daniel’s whiskey adds blackberry flavour to its range
|
Brown-Forman-owned Jack Daniel’s Tennessee whiskey has added a blackberry flavour to its range, The Spirits Business reported on August 5.
Clocking in at 35% ABV, Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Blackberry joins Honey, Fire and Apple in the brand’s flavoured whiskey lineup.
It is made with the distillery’s Old No. 7 Tennessee Whiskey, infused with fresh blackberry flavour.
Master distiller Chris Fletcher said: “The smooth, well-rounded finish of our Tennessee whiskey makes it one of the most versatile expressions to pair with unexpected flavour.
“By adding the ripe notes of blackberries, we’ve created an approachable spirit that’s full of character, easy to enjoy with friends and perfect for any season.”
The whiskey is said to have sweet and tangy blackberry notes, and is recommended neat, over ice or mixed into a cocktail.
Jack Daniel’s isn’t the first whiskey producer to play with blackberry, Diageo-owned Crown Royal also put the fruit flavour into practice in April last year.
During a conference call in June for Brown-Forman’s full-year financial results, CEO Lawson Whiting called blackberry a “globally recognised, well-established flavour trend”.
He said: “We’ve been strategic and purposeful with our innovation using consumer insights and trends to give consumers the opportunity to explore and discover within the Jack Daniel’s family.”
For the year
