Nile Breweries Limited: A Rich History and Market Dominance

Established in 1951, Nile Breweries Limited has a long-standing legacy in Uganda’s brewing industry. Initially formed by a group of businessmen associated with the construction of the Owen Falls Dam, the company has undergone several ownership changes.

In 2001, it was acquired by SABMiller Plc, the world’s second-largest brewer at the time, from the Madhvani family.

Nile Breweries Limited has consistently maintained its position as Uganda’s top provider of locally produced beer. With two plants located in Jinja and Mbarara, the company boasts a combined beer production capacity of 2.45 million hectolitres.

This impressive capacity translates to a commanding 59% market share, making Nile Breweries Limited a dominant force in the Ugandan beer industry.
