Ursus Breweries opens mini-brewery, restaurant in Cluj- Napoca, Romania
In mid-November last year, Ursus Breweries announced it would shut down the brewery in Cluj-Napoca and let go its 150 workers. The company said the decision was triggered by the declining beer sales in Romania in recent years. The factory in Cluj was opened in 1878.
Ursus Breweries, part of the SABMiller group, produces and sells several beer brands: URSUS, Timisoreana, Ciucas, Peroni Nastro Azzurro, Grolsch, Azuga, Redd’s, Stejar, Pilsner Urquell and Miller.
