Inbev names management in combined Inbev Anheuser-Busch
InBev SA said Wednesday that Luiz Fernando Edmond will lead the company's North American operations when the Belgian brewer acquires Anheuser-Busch Inc., forming the world's largest brewery.
Edmond, who works as the company's president of Latin America North, will oversee operations for Anheuser-Busch InBev — the name of the combined company — in the U.S. and Canada.
David A. Peacock will become Anheuser-Busch president and oversee U.S. operations and management of the brewer's Budweiser and Bud Light brands. Peacock is an Anheuser-Busch vice president.
The combined company's North American headquarters will remain in St. Louis, where Anheuser-Busch is currently based.
The two will assume their new posts when the $52 billion takeover is completed at the end of the year.
