HistoryMain article: South African Breweries The Company was
founded in South Africa in 1895 as South African Breweries (SAB):
the business operations were mainly limited to southern Africa,
where it had established a dominant position in the market, until
1990 when it began investing in Europe. After listing on the London
Stock Exchange in 1999[4] to raise capital for acquisitions, the
group purchased the Miller Brewing Company in North America from
the Altria Group in 2002, and changed its name to SABMiller.
Following this, the group s next major acquisition was of a major
interest in Bavaria S.A., South America s second largest brewer and
owner of the Aguila and Club Colombia brands in 2005.
