Israel Beer Breweries Ltd[1] (IBBL) is a brewery founded in 1992 in Ashkelon, Israel. It is also known as Carlsberg Israel.
History
[edit]The company was founded in 1992. In 2004, IBBL was ranked the second largest company in Israel's beer and cider market, behind Tempo Beer Industries.[2] On 2008-07-23, Carlsberg announced it sold its share of IBBL stock to CBC Group.[3]
There are approximately 320 employees.
The brewery is owned by the Central Bottling Company , which has held the Israeli franchise for Coca-Cola products since 1968.[4] The brewery is located above an underground aquifer and uses its water in the production process.
The brewery is now part of the IBBL visitors center, in which visitors tour the brewery and the Carlsberg factory.[5]
IBBL produces Carlsberg Beer and Tuborg Beer. In addition to beer, the company produces "Malty", a non-alcoholic beverage, as well as the "Prigat" brand juice-based drinks and nectars.[6]
