Bundaberg Brewed Drinks Pty Ltd is an Australian family-owned business that brews non-alcoholic beverages. Based in Bundaberg, Queensland, the company exports to over 61 countries across the globe and is most known for ginger beer and other carbonated beverages.[1][2]
History
[edit]The company was established in Bundaberg in 1960 as a bottling and fermenting business. In 1968, Mr. and Mrs. Fleming (senior) along with Cliff and Lee Fleming, bought the business, then known as Electra Breweries. From then on, it was run by mother, father, son and daughter.[2]
Circa 2011 the company established its own ginger farm to ensure an adequate supply of ginger.[3]
