The Nigerian Breweries (NB) Plc has announced an upward review in the prices of its products, citing rising operational and input costs.
The company in a notice to distributors, said the adjustments were driven by prevailing economic conditions that have significantly increased the cost of doing business.
NB, in a letter dated March 13 and signed by John Oloche Ademu, zonal business manager (West), said the new prices would take effect from March 20.
The company said the adjustment would apply to select products, a unique identifier used to track inventory within a business.
The Nigerian Breweries is the producer of major alcoholic products like Star Lager, Gulder, Legend Extra Stout, Heineken, Goldberg, Life, Star Radler and others.
The brewer’s non-alcoholic portfolio includes Maltina, Amstel Malta, Fayrouz, Climax Energy drink, and Malta Gold.
“As the country’s economic landscape continues to evolve, we want to inform you about an upcoming price adjustment.
“Due to increases in operational and input costs, we will be implementing a price increase on select SKUs, effective Friday March 20, 2026,” NB said.
The company said existing prices would be honoured for fully funded and confirmed orders placed in its system before March 20.
Similarly, Guinness Nigeria, in a separate notice dated March 14, informed distributors of a planned price increase on selected prroducts, with effect from March 27.
