Beer in South Africa

Brandhouse’s new Sedibeng brewery, opened in March 2011, put pressure on market leader SABMiller. Now that the premium beer brands Windhoek, Amstel and Heineken are brewed locally rather than being imported, there is a greater focus on these brands, which achieved strong growth in 2011. The introduction of 660ml returnable bottles for both Amstel and Windhoek also boosted sales in 2011.
