Who owns Great British Drinks Company?
Private · brewery and licensed-brand portfolio [1][2][3][4][5]
Paramount confirms the completed 2026 acquisition of the former Keystone portfolio. BREAL/Keystone ownership descriptions are historical for the acquired operations. Fourpure and Magic Rock are current operational portfolio entries, but their worldwide equity and trademark title have not been reconciled: the 2025 arrangement was described as an exclusive licence. No 100% ownership figure is invented for every portfolio logo or partner. [1][2][3][4][5]
Headquarters, incorporation and tax residence describe different things. A headquarters address does not tell you where all of a company’s tax is paid.
