E-Malt.com News article: Portugal & Angola: Sagres beer expected to double production volume in Angola this year

Production of Portugal’s Sagres beer was launched in Angola in March 2017 and the total volume brewed over the 12 months amounted to around 11 mln litres, Dinheiro Vivo reported on March 26.

The brand’s owner, Sociedade Central de Cervejas e Bebidas (SCC), hopes to double the output in 2018.

“We don’t export to Angola, the beer is brewed locally thanks to the contract we have with Sociedade de Distribuição de Bebidas de Angola (SODIBA),” said company Communications Director Nuno Pinto Magalhaes.

Sagres is the first international brand to be produced under license in Angola, he added.

The Portuguese company also exports to Angola via SODIBA its dark beer, a radler, and a range of Heineken-owned ciders.
