Summary
Sapporo Breweries is relocating some U.S. beer production from Canada to dodge 50% tariffs, betting big on the American market’s potential — even after past missteps like selling Stone Brewing and closing Anchor. By mid-next year, they’ll likely build or buy a West Coast facility, possibly partnering with local brewers, while the future of their Canadian operations — including Sleeman in Toronto, which employs 1,000 people — hangs in the balance. This bold pivot aims to localize supply, outmaneuver trade barriers, and dominate one of the world’s largest beer markets.
