United States: Anheuser-Busch confirms new investment in its Houston brewery

Anheuser-Busch, maker of Michelob Ultra, Busch Light, Budweiser, Bud Light, and Stella Artois, announced a new €15 million investment in its Houston, Texas, brewery. Over the past five years, the company has invested more than €1.8 billion in manufacturing facilities across the U.S.

The new investment is part of Anheuser-Busch's Brewing Futures initiative, under which it has committed to investing €270 million in 2025 to create and retain manufacturing jobs. The funds will enhance transportation capacity from the Houston brewery, improving product distribution throughout Texas. It follows more than $50 million already invested in the Houston facility over the past three years.

“Investing in our people and our facilities to drive economic prosperity is core to who we are,” said Brendan Whitworth, CEO of Anheuser-Busch. “This investment in Houston is the latest example of our commitment to strengthening local communities through job creation and economic growth.”
