Cervecería y Maltería Quilmes is a prominent Argentine brewery and malt company with a rich history dating back to 1888. Founded by Otto Bemberg, the company started as a family business in the city of Quilmes, Buenos Aires, chosen for its quality water and convenient distribution access. Quilmes launched its flagship beer in 1890 and has since grown to become a leading brand in Argentina's beverage market. The company produces beer under the Quilmes brand and operates malt production facilities, including a dedicated malt house in Tres Arroyos. Over the years, Quilmes has expanded its operations to several regions across Argentina, including Zárate, Tres Arroyos, Corrientes, Tucumán, and Mendoza. In addition to its core beverage offerings, Quilmes has historically engaged in related industries such as cheese production and yeast manufacturing. Since 2006, Quilmes has been part of Anheuser-Busch InBev, further solidifying its position in the industry.
