Anheuser-Busch InBev volumes unexpectedly increased as robust demand for beer in the region that includes Mexico offset sluggishness in the U.S. and China.
The world’s largest brewer reported a 0.8% rise in organic volume growth in the first quarter, with beer up by 1.2% according to a statement May 5. Analysts had expected a 0.3% drop.
Shares in AB InBev gained as much as 6.8% in early trading, adding to a more than 14% rise over the past 12 months.
“This is a high-quality print,” Edward Mundy and Sebastian Hickman, analysts at Jefferies, wrote in a note. They cited beats across volumes, revenue and Ebitda.
Strong beer demand in Mexico, Colombia and Peru drove volumes in the region up 4.8% in the period, offsetting a 3.1% decline in North America and a 0.4% drop in the region that includes China, amid a broad-based reduction in drinking. Revenue also rose in no-alcohol beer and in the non-beer segment.
While rival beer makers Heineken NV and Carlsberg A/S have warned the conflict in Middle East has raised the cost of energy and raw materials, Citigroup Inc. analyst Simon Hales said AB InBev is less exposed due to its skew to the Americas.
The Belgium-based company maintained its medium-term outlook of growth in earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization of between 4% and 8%.

Brent Spence Bridge Project Breaks Ground: Relief for Truckers by 2031
“Today, after decades of planning and preparation, we are finally breaking ground on a solution to the traffic headaches and interstate commerce delays caused by the overcrowded Brent Spence Bridge.” — Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine
Ohio and Kentucky have officially started the Brent Spence Bridge Corridor Project, a significant infrastructure undertaking in the U.S. The project involves constructing a new cable-stayed companion bridge and improving the existing Brent Spence Bridge. The total cost of this phase is $4.05 billion, with federal grants covering part of the expenses.
What This Means for Your Wallet and Your Miles
The Brent Spence Bridge is a known bottleneck, and once the project is completed in 2031, you should expect fewer delays and smoother transit through the Interstate-71/Interstate-75 corridor. This means less downtime and potentially more miles for you.
With $1 billion in freight passing daily, efficient bridge operations are crucial for maintaining your schedule and maximizing earnings. This project aims to ensure consistent flow, which can translate to steadier income for you.
Though this project’s completion is years away, it reflects a commitment to improving infrastructure that supports the trucking industry. It could lead to more job opportunities in construction and increased demand for freight services.
The bridge’s improved safety and reliability should reduce the risk of closures due to structural issues, keeping your routes predictable and reliable.
How will this project affect my daily routes?
While construction is underway, there could be temporary changes or disruptions. However, once completed, the project promises a significant reduction in congestion on key routes.
Is there any immediate benefit for my operations?
Immediate benefits might be limited during the construction phase, but the long-term goal is a smoother, more efficient corridor, which should benefit you in the future.
What are the funding sources for this project?
The project is funded through federal grants totaling $1.63 billion and contributions from both Ohio and Kentucky.
When can we expect the improvements to take effect?
The new companion bridge and related improvements are expected to be completed by 2031, providing long-term benefits thereafter.
Will this project create more trucking jobs?
The construction phase will create jobs, and improved infrastructure may increase demand for freight services, potentially boosting job opportunities in the trucking sector.

Brent Spence Bridge Project Breaks Ground to Ease Major Trucking Bottleneck
“Today, after decades of planning and preparation, we are finally breaking ground on a solution to the traffic headaches and interstate commerce delays caused by the overcrowded Brent Spence Bridge.” — Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine
Ohio and Kentucky have commenced the Brent Spence Bridge Corridor Project, a major infrastructure initiative. This project involves constructing a new cable-stayed bridge alongside the existing Brent Spence Bridge, which spans the Ohio River between Cincinnati and Covington. The new bridge is slated to open in 2031, with project costs totaling $4.05 billion.
What This Means for Your Wallet and Your Miles
The Brent Spence Bridge is notorious for being one of the worst trucking bottlenecks in the U.S., so the new bridge should significantly reduce delays on your routes through the Interstate-71/Interstate-75 corridor.
This project promises to ease congestion, meaning less idling and time wasted in traffic, potentially boosting your fuel efficiency and cutting down on costs.
With federal grants covering part of the costs, and each state sharing expenses for the bridge, financial burdens won’t be directly transferred to you as a driver in the form of tolls or taxes, at least for this phase.
The improvements to the existing bridge will also improve local traffic flow, which should mean smoother and safer transit for your hauls in the area.
How will the Brent Spence Bridge Project affect traffic?
The project aims to ease congestion significantly by adding a new bridge and improving the existing one, which should reduce traffic delays.
Will there be tolls on the new bridge?
There’s no mention of tolls in the current phase of the project, with funding covered by federal grants and state budgets.
When is the new bridge expected to open?
The new companion bridge is expected to open in 2031.
How will this affect my fuel costs?
Reduced congestion should lead to better fuel efficiency since you’ll spend less time idling in traffic.
What should I do during the construction period?
Stay updated on construction progress and traffic pattern changes to adjust your routes and minimize delays.
