Zambian Breweries Plant

Zambian Breweries PLC is the country's leading beverage manufacturer and a subsidiary of AB InBev, the world's largest brewing group. The company operates two major production facilities in Lusaka and Ndola, brewing well-known beer brands such as Mosi Lager, Castle, and Eagle. Mosi Lager, named after the local name for Victoria Falls, is considered the national beer of Zambia and is deeply integrated into local culture. In addition to beer, the company also bottles a wide range of soft drinks under license from Coca-Cola. Zambian Breweries plays a significant role in the local agricultural value chain by sourcing thousands of tons of barley, maize, and sorghum from local small-scale farmers every year. Recent multi-million dollar investments have focused on expanding production capacity at its Lusaka plant to meet rising market demand. As one of the country's largest corporate taxpayers, it contributes substantially to the national treasury. The company also spearheads initiatives for responsible drinking and environmental sustainability, particularly in water conservation.
