Who owns Labatts Beer?

Labatt Brewing Company Limited is a Belgian-owned brewery headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Labatt Breweries was founded by John Kinder Labatt in 1847 in London, Canada West (now Ontario).

Kinder had immigrated to Canada from Ireland in the 1830s and initially established himself as a farmer near London.

Labatt is now part of the new company, Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV, which is trading as BUD on the New York Stock Exchange.

In the United States, Labatt brand beers are sold under license by Labatt USA, which since 2009 has been fully independent of the Canadian firm and a subsidiary of the privately held FIFCO USA of Rochester, New York.

Labatt was also the majority owner of the Toronto Blue Jays from their inception in 1976 until 1995 when Interbrew purchased Labatt. In 2000, Rogers Communications purchased an 80% stake in the team and Interbrew retained the other 20%; Rogers later acquired full ownership of the team.
