The spending continues for Anheuser-Busch, as the company announced yet another major capital investment at one of its U.S. breweries: a new, $17 million investment in its Houston, Texas, facility.
The capital project is part of the Brewing Futures initiative, a commitment made in May 2025 to invest $300 million in Anheuser-Busch’s facilities to create and sustain U.S. manufacturing jobs. However, it also builds upon more than $50 million invested by the company in its Houston brewery over the past three years. The current project, the company said, will ensure brewing excellence and strengthen transportation capabilities throughout the region.
The Houston facility has been in operation for nearly 60 years, and between Anheuser-Busch and its distributor partners, more than $2.3 billion in capital has been invested in Texas to date. The company has nearly 1,000 employees across four Texas facilities.
Anheuser-Busch has invested nearly $2 billion into its U.S. facilities over the past five years, and this latest project continues the focus on improving its breweries bit by bit. Prior to Anheuser-Busch’s Brewing Futures announcement in May, Food Processing has reported on more than half-a-dozen individual investments at U.S. breweries that averaged about $10 million per project over the 18 months or so. The last announced individual capital expense was a March 2025 $4.2 million plan for Williamsburg, Va. — you can follow that link to see the other brewery investments the company has made since November 2023.
