Central Cervecera de Colombia

Colombia’s soft-drink maker Postobón and Chile’s CCU set up Central Cervecera as equal partners on 10 November 2014. It first imported Heineken and other beers; its own Andina followed in February 2019, when the brewery at Sesquilé, Cundinamarca, started with 3 million hectolitres of capacity, since raised to 4 million. Its general manager said in October 2026 that it held about 7.2% of the market, against more than 90% for Bavaria, and that Andina Refajo, beer mixed with soda, had doubled that segment. It buys its malt and hops abroad, since Colombia’s only maltings belong to Bavaria.
