Activities

Carlsberg is one of the world’s largest brewery groups.

We have a beer for every occasion and for every palate and lifestyle. The Group’s broad portfolio of beer brands includes Carlsberg Pilsner, known as 'Probably the best beer in the world', and strong regional brands such as Tuborg, Baltika and Holsten. We also have a wide range of leading brands in our local markets.

We operate primarily in mature markets in Western Europe but are generating an ever-growing share of revenue in selected growth markets in Eastern Europe and Asia.

Built on quality
Carlsberg is built on a proud history. We were founded in 1847 and have always been renowned for consistently high quality, but in recent years business has really taken off. Expansion and dynamic marketing externally, together with streamlining and innovation internally, have brought growth in both revenue and earnings.

Structured for growth

Carlsberg A/S, the Parent Company of the Group, is owned by 20,000 institutional and private investors all over the world and is listed on the Copenhagen Stock Exchange. 51% of the shares are held by the Carlsberg Foundation, established by Carlsberg’s founder J.C. Jacobsen, which backs the Company as an active and long-term shareholder as well as supporting scientific research and art.
