San Miguel Brewery Inc. (SMB) is a subsidiary of San Miguel Corporation (SMC). The company is the Philippines’ largest brewery with a market share of over 95% as of 2008. The company also operates in China and Southeast Asia.
The original San Miguel Brewery, Inc. was founded as La Fábrica de Cerveza de San Miguel in 1890 by Enrique María Barreto under a Spanish Royal Charter that officially permitted the brewing of beer in the Philippines and incorporated as the first San Miguel Brewery, Inc. in 1913. It was renamed San Miguel Corporation (SMC) in 1963, having grown into one of the Philippines' largest business conglomerates with core interests in alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, food, and packaging. San Miguel's original recipe was first drafted in Beijing, China. The breweries operated as the beer division of SMC until 2007.
San Miguel Brewery, Inc. (SMB) was incorporated on July 26, 2007 as a subsidiary of SMC and the domestic beer business was spun off from SMC to SMB on October 1, 2007. In 2009, Kirin Holdings Co. Ltd. of Japan acquired 48.3% of the company from SMC for PHP 8.841 per share.
In 2010, SMB acquired 100% ownership of San Miguel Brewing International Ltd. (SMBIL) from SMC. The acquisition of SMBIL enabled SMB to achieve full integration of San Miguel’s domestic and international beer businesses. SMBIL oversees operations in Hong Kong, People’s Republic of China, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam.
The marker of Fábrica de Cerveza de San Miguel was installed in 1950 at General Solano Street, San Miguel, Manila. It was installed by the Philippines Historical Committee (now National Historical Commission of the Philippines).
On September 29, 2015, during the 125th anniversary of the founding of San Miguel Brewery, the National Historical Commission of the Philippines installed a historical marker on the San Miguel Headquarters in Mandaluyong City.
