Massive $100.0 Billion merger expected between Anheuser-Busch and SABMiller Source: Reuters 28/10/13 With half the worlds beer produced by four big firms and few markets left for them to tap, the time may be right for a US$100-billion merger between the two largest, Anheuser-Busch InBev and SABMiller. This mega-deal is tipped by analysts as the most likely tie-up because of the other two, Heineken is family controlled and Carlsberg is protected by a trust. Talk that AB InBev might buy SABMiller is not new, but it paused in June 2012 when the former announced a US$20.1 billion deal to take over Mexican brewery Grupo Modelo.
