I don't understand this report. Those brewery companies produce other non-alcoholic drinks like malt and beverages. Why the Bleep did they present it like the revenue was just from beer? Mad people.

Guiness Nigeria - Dubic Malt and Malta Guiness.

International Brewery - Grand Malt.

Nigeria Brewery - Amstel Malt and Maltina.

Champion Brewery - Champ Malta.

The four companies also produce other non-alcoholic drinks aside malt.
