Interesting that Wikipedia has this listed as having a price fixing conviction yet no mention of it anywhere. Me thinks this article has been scrubbed by those who shouldn't be editing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.224.102.82 (talk) 07:18, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dutch pronunciation?

The pronunciation isn't real Dutch. Then it would be pronounced like anhößer büs or something like that. I don't know the IPA letters. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arndt1969 (talk • contribs) 19:08, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Major homebrew stores acquisition

It appears that InBev has acquired Northern Brewer and Midwest Homebrew supplies, thoughts on where this should appear since it isn't a "beverage" brand or direct producer of beverages? --Debaser42 (talk) 13:25, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Company has merged and became Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV

See below for the revision. I have made revisions in light of the Oct. 2016 merger, but other revisions probably need to be made too. The name of the company, for example, but also in the text. I don't have time to do it all.

The merger (A-B InBev acquisition of SABMiller), closed on October 10, 2016. The new company is called Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV, and is trading on the New York stock exchange as BUD (NYSE:BUD). The SABMiller name was dropped and that entity ceased trading. This new company is the world's largest beer company. Estimated annual sales would be $55 billion in and the company will have an estimated global market share of 28 percent, according to Euromonitor International.

Anheuser-Busch InBev is a Brazilian-Company?

The original AB InBev was formed through successive mergers of three international brewing groups completed in 2008: Interbrew from Belgium, AmBev from Brazil, and Anheuser-Busch from the United States so should we call it a Brazilian-Belgium-American conglomerate?? The new holding company's headquarters are located in Leuven, Belgium and is traded in the European, Johannesburg, Mexican and New York Stock Exchanges and not in any Brazilian stock market. It is very misleading to call it a Brazilian-Belgium company when all facts point to it being a registered Belgium multinational corporation. I submit that the most accurate classification would be of a multinational company headquartered in Belgium. Can we get a senior editor to weigh in on this editing dispute? Thank you. b575 (talk) 21:56, 15 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Anheuser-Busch InBev is a Brazilian-Company?

No, it is not a Brazilian company, it is a Belgian-Brazilian company based in Belgium.

Its predecessor, InBev was a brewing company that resulted from the merger between Belgium-based company Interbrew and Brazilian brewer AmBev which took place in 2004. It existed independently until the acquisition of Anheuser-Busch in 2008, that formed Anheuser-Busch InBev (abbreviated AB InBev). In other hand, in 2004, AmBev merged with Belgian company Interbrew to form InBev

Placing this company as an American would not be wrong either, except that the acquisition process of Anheuser-Busch was different from that of InBev. InBev arose through a merger between two companies, which in 2008 came to acquire Anheuser-Busch, creating the ABInBev. Acquiring and merging are different concepts, for consumers this does not make any difference, but if we want to analyze the history of the company then this is relevant.

The company is not registered as Belgian, it is registered as Belgium-based company, and the company recognizes itself as Belgian-Brazilian. The choice of Belgium as the company's headquarters was due to the fact that the Belgian market is much more fluid, dynamic and open than the Brazilian market. On the issue of stock exchanges, this does not determine the nationality of the company, or is ABINBev now South African? Or are the thousands of Argentine companies no longer Argentine because they are registered on the New York Stock Exchange?

I never denied that the company was based in Belgium. but I do not understand how an additional fact, recognized by the company itself, and stated with the sources I have posted can be so absurd. I've put sources, and some research on the internet prove what is said. It is not necessary for you to post further sources stating that the company is Belgium-based, because it is not necessary to state numerous times just because you disagree with something. :And please respect the other editors, and stop inducing, accusing or undermining certain editions for pure prejudice or arrogance. I am not brazilian, I am south american but I am not a "continentalist", or a "latino lover", and I do not have and do not need other accounts to reaffirm my edition.

My point was placed with sources, arguments. And my point did not denigrate any other part of the article.
