An update from a story breaking in RBPMail July '97, Budweiser will be produced in Brazil after all. The nation's top competition regulator will allow a joint venture between Anheuser-Busch Cos. and Antarctica of Brazil. The regulator had ruled in June 1997 that the original arrangement was not in the interest of Brazilian consumers. After A-B and Antarctica presented counter-proposals, raising A-B's stake in the venture, the decision was reversed. Antarctica will produce Budweiser for the Brazilian market at a new plant in Rio de Janeiro state. It will ... produce its new Cristal brand, which A-B will market in the U.S.

Over the years, Budweiser has been distributed in many sizes and containers. Through the early-1950s Budweiser was primarily distributed in just 3 packages -- kegs, 12-ounce bottles and quart bottles. Cans were first introduced in 1936[2]. From 1936 to 1955, cans were slow to catch on. In 1955, August Busch Jr.[3] made the strategic move to expand Budweiser's national brand and distributor presence. Along with this expansion came advances in bottling automation, new bottling materials and more efficient distribution methods. These advances have brought to market many new containers and package designs.
