called hogsheads containing beer became a
household sight.
These carts wheeled their way to the customers,
including British troops, living in and around
Madras, Bangalore and the Nilgiris.

 The company was

bought by late Mr.
Vittal Mallya in 1947.
The Dhaka-born Mallya
invested heavily in the
shares of United
Breweries in the late
40s with an eye on its
eventual acquisition.

Directors of UBL in 1947 at the age of 22 and
a year later became its Chairman.
Vittal Mallya was succeded by Dr. Vijay
Mallya, was elected by shareholders as
Chairman of UB in 1983, at the age of 28.
