Nigerian Breweries Plc is a Lagos-based brewing company and one of Nigeria’s oldest and largest players in the sector, founded in 1946. It contributed to the development of Nigeria's early beer industry, with the first STAR lager bottled in Lagos in 1949, and it expanded over the decades by establishing breweries in Aba, Kaduna, Ibadan, Enugu, and Ama-eke; after merging with Consolidated Breweries in 2014, its footprint broadened further. Today the group operates 11 breweries, two malting plants, and a network of sales depots that distributes its products across Nigeria. The company serves a broad Nigerian consumer base with a portfolio of lagers and malt beverages. It operates within Nigeria's food and beverage services sector as a leading brewer with a substantial manufacturing and distribution footprint. In 2026, the organization announced changes in its Human Resources leadership, noting the retirement of the HR Director and the appointment of a successor to guide its people strategy.
