Weather…

The Delta Beverages brewery in Harare, particularly the Southerton facility, serves as the industrial flagship of Zimbabwe's beverage sector. As the primary production hub for Delta Corporation, an associate of the global leader AB InBev, this plant manufactures an extensive portfolio of lager beers and non-alcoholic beverages. The brewery utilizes state-of-the-art bottling lines and fermentation technology to produce iconic brands such as Castle Lager, Lion Lager, and Carling Black Label. The facility is a major consumer of locally grown malting barley and sorghum, fostering strong value-chain links with Zimbabwean farmers. In addition to alcoholic beverages, the complex includes large-scale bottling operations for sparkling beverages under license from The Coca-Cola Company. Delta Beverages consistently invests in capacity upgrades to meet the increasing urban demand in the capital city. The plant is a vital employer in Harare and contributes substantially to the national treasury through excise duties and taxes. Environmental sustainability initiatives, including advanced wastewater treatment and energy recovery systems, are core components of its operational strategy.
