AB InBev Volumes Return to Growth on Resilient Beer Demand

Anheuser-Busch InBev posted its first expansion in volumes since 2023 as demand for its top-selling beers Michelob and Corona grew in several key markets.

The world’s largest brewer reported a 0.8% rise in organic volume growth for the first quarter, confounding expectations for a 0.3% drop. Demand for beer, which accounts for nearly 90% of volumes, surged in Mexico and across South America, offsetting sluggishness in the US and China.
