Best-Performing Brewery Shares In 2025

Guinness

Shareholders of Guinness were the top gainers in the brewery industry last year, as the value of their investment increased threefold or 398.07 percent between the first quarter (Q1) and fourth quarter (Q4).

  • According to Prime Business Africa’s analysis, the shareholders recorded the highest appreciation due to bullish sentiments among NGX traders towards the company, which pushed Guinness’ share price up from N70.25 kobo to N349.90 kobo.
  • The N279.65 kobo increase in share price led to a combined gain of N612,54 billion for the shareholders between January and December last year, and also increased Guinness’ market valuation from N153.87 billion to N766.41 billion.

Champion Breweries

Champion Breweries occupied the second position on the list following a 267.45 percent appreciation in the investments held by its shareholders, representing a combined gain of N91.18 billion in 12 months.

  • This was driven by a N10.19 kobo increase in the drink producer’s share price, as NGX traders valued each share of the company at N14 at the end of December, compared to the N3.81 kobo it was traded at the start of January.
  • Prime Business Africa gathered that the surge led to the company’s market valuation in the Nigerian stock market increasing from N34.09 billion recorded on January 2, 2025, to N125.27 billion on December 31, 2025.

International Breweries

Between the first quarter and the fourth quarter of last year, the shareholders of International Breweries recorded 154.54 percent growth in their investment, as the company’s share price jumped by N8.5 kobo.

  • A look at the company’s share performance during the period under review showed that International Breweries’ share price increased from N5.50 kobo to N14, leading to a combined gain of N1.43 billion for the shareholders.
  • This also resulted in an increase in International Breweries’ valuation in the Nigerian stock market, as it jumped from N925.60 billion at the start of Q1 to N2.35 trillion at the end of Q4.

Nigerian Breweries

Nigerian Breweries was the fourth best-performing stock in the industry, after the company’s share price rose by N43.3 kobo between January and December, leading to a 135.31 percent appreciation in the investment held by the brewer’s shareholders.

  • According to an analysis of the stock market data, equity traders on the NGX were willing to buy the drink producer’s shares at N75.30 kobo per share at the end of the fourth quarter, compared to the N32 it was traded at the beginning of Q1 last year.
  • As a result, shareholders’ investment appreciated threefold, resulting in a combined gain of N1.34 trillion, and raising the Nigerian Breweries’ market valuation from N991.45 billion to N2.33 trillion during the period under review.
