Grupa Żywiec

About

Grupa Żywiec is a Polish brewing group with its registered address at ul. Browarna 88, Żywiec, and headquarters in Warsaw. It changed its legal form from a joint-stock company (S.A.) to a limited liability company (Sp. z o.o.) with effect from 30 June 2023. GLEIF names Heineken N.V. as its direct parent.^[1] Its Tatra beer is brewed at the group's Elbląg, Warka and Żywiec breweries.^[2] In 2023 the group announced it would close its Leżajsk brewery.^[3]

The GS1 prefix 5901559 is attributed here by derivation, not from a GS1 record: the Tatra can with barcode 5901559840008 names Grupa Żywiec S.A. as its operator.^[4]
