Ambev S.a.

A Brazilian brewing giant, Ambev makes the country's best-known beers and soft drinks — brands like Skol, Antarctica, and Brahma — along with Guaraná Antarctica and other everyday beverages. It came to life in 1999 when two longtime rivals, Brahma (founded 1888 by a Swiss immigrant) and Antarctica (founded 1885), merged to become the Americas' Beverage Company. Today it's part of Anheuser-Busch InBev, the world's largest brewer, and its Antarctica brand owes its frosty name to the Antarctic Ocean.
