Samuel Whitbread established Whitbread with Thomas Shewell in 1742. In 1750, Samuel Whitbread moved his brewing operations to the first purpose-built mass-production brewery in East London. For over 200 years, Whitbread & Co introduced many brands to the UK, such as Stella Artois and Heineken, amongst others, which grew in popularity up to the 90s when people began to purchase international brands such as Fosters and Budweiser. Then, in 2001, after a long history of brewing, the company known as Whitbread Group Plc decided to sell all its breweries and brewing interests (Whitbread Brewing Company) to Interbrew, now known as InBev.
