  • General Information History
    DESCRIPTION OF SOCIEDAD ANÓNIMA DAMM AND ITS GROUP General information Sociedad Anónima Damm (“Damm”) was incorporated as a public limited company (sociedad anónima) under the laws of Spain, for an indefinite term on 3 January 1910 and is currently registered with the Commercial Registry of Barcelona, in Volume 21.167, Book 1 and Page number B-17.713. Its registered address is calle Rosselló 515, Barcelona, Spain and its tax ID number is A-08000820. Damm’s corporate objects are the brewing and selling of beer and its residues and by-products, which it may carry out directly or through other companies in which it owns a stake. Damm is the parent company of several subsidiaries engaged in different activities directly or indirectly related with the corporate objects of Damm, and which together with Damm form a consolidated group of companies operating principally in the beverages industry (the “Damm Group”). History Damm traces its roots back 140 years, to 1876, when August Kuentzmann Damm and his wife Melanie, fleeing from the Franco-Prussian War, left their native Alsace, and with his cousin Joseph Damm, began brewing and marketing Strasburger beer using the symbol of a star in Barcelona. Since then, Estrella Damm has been brewed using the same original recipe from 1876 and 100 per cent. natural ingredients, a combination of barley malt, rice and hops. Damm was incorporated in 1910, when three major breweries in Barcelona merged and has since focused its activity on the brewing and selling of beer, having consolidated its position as one of the top three Spanish brewers by production volume.

  • The Kent Brewery Building at 197 Ann Street
    Evaluation of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest: The Kent Brewery building at 197 Ann Street 1.0 Background 1.1 Property Location The property at 197 Ann Street is located on the south side of Ann Street east of St. George Street (Appendix A). The property at 197 Ann St. consists of a two-storey main building (the Kent Brewery building), the adjoining one-storey brewery washhouse, a side garage, and three storage/garage outposts that extend to the back of the property. 1.2 Cultural Heritage Status The property at 197 Ann Street was added to the Inventory of Heritage Resources in 1997. In 2007, the Inventory of Heritage Resources was adopted in its entirety as the Register pursuant to Section 27 of the Ontario Heritage Act by Municipal Council. The property at 197 Ann Street is a potential cultural heritage resource. 1.3 Description The Old Kent Brewery at 197 Ann St is a two-storey former industrial building built for purpose as a proto-industrial mid-19th century brewery (Appendix B). It has the simple spare lines and square form of the Georgian style which was eminently suited to its utilitarian and vernacular function. It adheres to the Georgian style with its simplicity: the flat planes of its façade and side walls and the symmetry in the placement of the windows. The symmetry of the façade is broken by the side placement of the front door which allowed more space inside for production activities. This building is clad in locally-sourced London buff brick and an Italianate influence can be seen in the construction of an elaborate and corbelled brick cornice above.

  • Twenty-First Century Aesthetic Adventures in Beer and Cider Advertising on Australian Television
    The Sacred Sell: Twenty-First Century Aesthetic Adventures in Beer and Cider Advertising on Australian Television Christopher Hartney Introduction1 In 2017, Meat and Livestock Australia - the body responsible for promoting the consumption of lamb in Australia - launched a controversial television advertisement. Seated around a table in a suburban Australian backyard, a number of religious figures have gathered for lunch. An actor dressed as Bacchus proposes a toast; after a number of suggestions from figures such as L. Ron Hubbard and Moses, the atheist host suggests they toast “lamb - the meat we can all eat,” and all the deities at the table find themselves in accord. No doubt many religious people would be incensed that personalities from their religion’s history have been co-opted to sell meat. But, after making the main point of the advertisement - that, given the broad range of dietary prescriptions in the religions of the world, lamb has mass appeal - the host also explains that atheism is the fastest growing religious category in Australia according to census data, and announces that she is one. This little quip seems to justify the advertisement’s controversial content and its look; the inference being that once Australians would have expressed deep upset at such a scene, but now religious tensions and concerns have been mollified by the increase of disbelief. That the characters in the advertisement are drinking, eating, and enjoying each others’ company additionally suggests that getting religious figures to endorse lamb is not a significant problem in a new and ‘religiously relaxed’ Australia. Well, this is almost the case.

  • Global Beer: Tapping Into Growth
    COVER STORY GLOBAL BEER: TAPPING INTO GROWTH f you need more convincing that beer has become one of the world’s truly global industries then consider this Irecent development at SABMiller: The company announced in January it would replace the head of its US- based Miller Brewing division with South African Breweries director Norman Adami. Now, how the South African takes to those less-than-balmy Wisconsin winters is a whole other story. Adami’s relocation to the US is but one example of the effects of continuing consolidation in the global beer industry. But it probably won’t be the last. Chances are we’ll be seeing additional chief executives catching the next flight to their new country of residence—and more often. “Consolidation led by major international brewers and vol- ume growth in developing markets, particularly China, are undoubtedly the most important recent trends in the global beer industry,” says Glen Steinman, president of the Hong Kong-based Seema International, a specialist in beer indus- try development in Asia and North America. A number of trends are converging to fuel the consol- idation. The larger brewers are faced with low prospects for volume growth in developed markets leading them to seek growth either via the acquisition of other brewers, by aggressive participation in developing markets—or both. “According to various studies we have done, aggregate volume of the world’s top 10 brewers has grown at more than four times the pace of total industry volume since the mid-1990s,” says Steinman. “Combined volume of all other brewers actually decreased during the same period.

  • American Can Company Canning Codes by Jules Kish #7855
    American Can Company Canning Codes By Jules Kish #7855 I often wondered why beer can collectors know everything there is to know about every conceivable brewery that ever was, and yet knowledge of the actual thing that they collect—the empty can—is lacking or at the very least, scarce. Many guys would say, “Who cares?” This article is for those who answer “I do!” The American Can Company (ACCO) was formed in 1901 as a merger of 104 smaller competing firms into one large company that could cut costs through efficiencies of scale and reduced competition. Eventually many of these original companies were closed or were bought out and many new ones opened, but ACCO was still a major packaging manufacturer well into the 1980s. Each factory from those original companies was given a company designation such as A,C,Co.##-A, with small marks on the tins produced. For “Keglined” beer cans from ACCO from 1935 to 1953, the ##-A is sometimes followed by a symbol that specifies the year the can was manufactured. Why all the secrecy I don’t know. Why not just print the city and year? What follows is an investigation of the mystery of the ACCO can codes. The original work in determining the codes—or can factory numbers—and date symbols for beer cans was performed many years ago. As far as is known up to the present day, the following list is the accepted city and can code for ACCO beer cans. Currently Accepted ACCO Canning Plant Numbers (Can Code) and Cities It was sometime during the spring of 2015 when my wife Sandy and I visited Greenwich, CT with the brilliant idea that a find of a lifetime might be made possible by looking up former ACCO employees and then finding any living relatives to see if their ancestors ever left any cans laying around.

    Universidad de los Andes Facultad de Economía Informe final de la Memoria de Grado María Palacios Lleras 200722728 Mayo 22 de 2012 ¿EN QUÉ MEDIDA, LOS PRECIOS Y LA PUBLICIDAD DETERMINAN LAS PREFERENCIAS POR UN BIEN? EL CASO DE LA CERVEZA RUBIA Y NO LIGHT EN COLOMBIA 1. RESUMEN Las empresas pueden hacer diferenciación de productos haciéndolos distintos objetivamente, o haciéndolos percibir como distintos mediante el uso del mercadeo. En este trabajo me refiero a esta segunda alternativa, y cuantifico qué tanto influyen el precio y la publicidad, como herramientas de mercadeo para productos entre los que no existen mayores diferencias objetivas, pero que se venden con marcas y precios diferentes. En particular he podido establecer que ambas herramientas llevan a la formación de preferencias de los consumidores por las distintas marcas nacionales de cerveza rubia y no light, producidas por Bavaria. De manera específica, cuantifiqué que el aumento de un punto en la identificación con una imagen publicitaria, incrementa en 0.229, 0.235, 0.232, 0.187, 0.246, y 0.155 puntos las preferencias de los individuos de estratos 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 y 6 respectivamente. Además, encontré que un incremento del 1% del precio de la cerveza, hace que aumenten las preferencias en 0.288, 0.266, 0.235, 0.237 y 0.2 puntos de las personas pertenecientes a los estratos 2, 3, 4, 5 y 6, respectivamente. Palabras clave: diferenciación de producto, publicidad, precios, Bavaria. 2. INTRODUCCIÓN En Colombia, la empresa Bavaria tiene el 99%1 de participación en el mercado de la cerveza, por lo que virtualmente es monopolista de dicha industria.
