5 Most Valuable Alcohol Companies in the World

2. Anheuser-Busch InBev Sa/NV (NYSE:BUD)

Market Cap: $118.171 billion

Anheuser-Busch InBev Sa/NV (NYSE:BUD) is the Largest Beer Producer in the World. The company had a production volume of 595 million hectoliters, or over 25% of the global beer production in 2022, with a revenue of $57.7 billion and a net income of almost $6 billion, making it the Richest Alcohol Company in the World. 

The beer behemoth faced some headwinds in the American market after the recent controversy regarding its best-selling brand Bud Light, which resulted in the iconic brand losing its crown as the Best-Selling Beer in America after nearly two decades. Nevertheless, billionaire Bill Gates’ portfolio managers decided to initiate a $96 million position in the firm during the second quarter of 2023. 

Anheuser-Busch InBev Sa/NV (NYSE:BUD) is now looking to make a comeback after it scored a sponsorship for the upcoming Olympic Games, making it the first beer company to ever sponsor the grand event. The IOC specifically highlighted Corona Cero – the non-alcoholic version of the global best-seller Corona – as the beer of choice for the partnership, which will stretch from the upcoming Paris 2024 Summer games to Los Angeles 2028 Summer games.
