Anheuser-Busch Produces 100 Millionth Can of Emergency Drinking Water for Communities in Need
Anheuser-Busch has reached a significant milestone by producing its 100 millionth can of emergency drinking water for disaster-affected communities since 1988. The company is marking this achievement with a $6 million investment in its Fort Collins, Colorado brewery to enhance both beer and emergency water production capabilities.
All 12 Anheuser-Busch breweries have participated in this initiative, with facilities in Fort Collins and Cartersville now dedicated to year-round emergency water production. The company's latest batch will support volunteer fire departments nationwide, with plans to deliver 1.5 million cans to over 630 departments across 45 states ahead of wildfire season.
This initiative, conducted in partnership with the American Red Cross and the National Volunteer Fire Council, demonstrates how Anheuser-Busch leverages its manufacturing network and distribution capabilities to provide critical disaster relief support while maintaining its primary beer production operations.
