Anheuser-Busch InBev, or AB InBev, has been acquisitive, having made transformative deals for Interbrew and Anheuser-Busch, and more recently acquiring Grupo Modelo, Oriental Brewery, and SABMiller. Management's strategy is to buy brands with a promising growth platform, expand distribution, and ruthlessly squeeze costs from the business.
AB InBev's worldwide scale and distribution is massive. Its top 20 brands each generate more than $1 billion per year in sales.
The company's flagship Budweiser brand and sister brand Bud Light are both facing meaningful headwinds in the US from craft and imported brands.
