SAB (South African Breweries) has been in business for 125 years. The first idea of brewery came about in 1895, a passion of a man from England came about to be a fixed point on the South African landscape. Charles Glass, founder of Castle Brewery merged with other breweries to form SAB. SAB was the first industrial company to be listed on the JSE two years after it was founded.
SAB grew massively over the years, so much that in 2010, it launched an empowerment scheme called SAB Zenzele. SAB Zenzele is the largest BBBEE scheme in South Africa, with around 42 000 shareholders, around R14 billion in value for its beneficiaries, with over R9.7 billion return value. These can be paid in cash or in AB Inbev shares.
With the success of the scheme, a shareholder who had invested R100 with SAB Zenzele for 10 years, would have recieved R77,518 payout before tax, despite the inflation.
