SABMiller is reportedly looking to acquire a stake in Chongqing Brewery, despite global rival Carlsberg already having a holding in the Chinese brewer, according to reports.
Citing unnamed sources, the Economic Observer said late last week that SABMiller is set to bid for a 12.25% share in Chongqing.
