The agreement extends a long-running relationship between
Novelis Inc., the world's leading can sheet producer, and
Anheuser-Busch, Incorporated, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Anheuser-Busch InBev N.V./S.A. - the world's No. 1 brewer. The
contract covers the supply of can body stock, can end stock and can
tab stock for use in the production of aluminum beverage
containers. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed; however,
Novelis acknowledged that the agreement relates to Anheuser-Busch's
North American operations only and provides for volumes similar to
the current contract.
"Anheuser-Busch has been a valued customer of Novelis for many
years and we are pleased that, with this new agreement, we will
continue to be a supplier to the company," said Phil Martens,
president and chief operating officer of Novelis.
