Metal crown???: new section

Has the time not come to rewrite this article and clarify the distinction between the parent company and the Hub/subsidiary.

The corporate function now operates out of London, and if anything this article confuses this fact by making it sound like the centre is still in Johannesburg. [[User:Andbrew.downes|Andbrew.downes]] ([[User talk:Andbrew.downes|talk]]) 20:28, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

== Metal crown??? ==

I had to figure out what a 'metal crown' was; FYI, in US, we call those 'bottle caps'! You might want to add 'bottle caps' in parenthesis.

I wonder if this article was plagiarized... --Sean κ. 23:37, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)

It very well could have been. Look at the changes between these two versions here made by 66.189.89.87. He never responded to a request for citations when asked on his talk page. --BaronLarf 16:32, Apr 19, 2005 (UTC)
Well, a quick search on Google shows that the only page that comes close to being a copy actually took the material from us. Still, I suspect that this may have been taken from a print article. I'm at a loss for what to do at the moment. —Sean κ. 16:56, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
I am the author of most of the content in this article. I am a professional writer and I wrote this as part of a research project that was never published. As such, I decided to donate it to Wikipedia. Dtaw2001 18:52, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Differentiate between South African Breweries and SABMiller

Has the time not come to rewrite this article and clarify the distinction between the parent company and the Hub/subsidiary. Much has changed since the early days of expansion, and as although there is still much loyalty to the origins of SABMiller, SAB is now but a cog in a much bigger machine.
The corporate function now operates out of London, and if anything this article confuses this fact by making it sound like the centre is still in Johannesburg. Andbrew.downes (talk) 20:28, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
