From Dispersed Ownership to Concentration and Back

�Hundreds of industrial, castle, monastery etc. breweries existed in Bohemia at old times (similar like in Germany – even now)

�Breweries also differed according to ethnic �Breweries also differed according to ethnic principles: Czech vs German (Pilsen-Plzeň, Budweis-České Budějovice)

� Industrial brewing led to concentration: example of merger between (Czech) Pilsner Urquell and (German) Gambrinus breweries in the 1920s in Pilsen

�After World War II (also under Communist rule) there were cca 45 industrial breweries in CZ

From Dispersed Ownership to Concentration and Back

�After so-called Velvet Revolution the Czech Brewing Industry became an object of interest from abroad: both private equity and (mainly) large international beer companies entered the market, acquiring breweries

�Examples of unsuccessful acquisitions, without respect to the Czech beer culture: BASS of UK acquiring Prague-based Staropramen in mid-90s - quick exit, selling to Belgian Interbrew

�The best success story is Pilsner Urquell´s acquisition by �The best success story is Pilsner Urquell´s acquisition by South African Breweries in 1999: SAB made PU its international premium brand, exporting into 100 countries

�Cca 30% of the market is in Czech hands – private companies

�Budweiser (Budejovicky Budvar) represents the only exception, being so-called National Enterprise, the unique of its kind, owned by the Czech government (Ministry of Agriculture) – because of trademark disputes with Anheuser-Busch world-wide
