Bundaberg Brewed Drinks Pty Ltd is an Australian company. It is owned by a family and makes non-alcoholic drinks. The company is based in Bundaberg, Queensland, Australia.

Bundaberg Brewed Drinks is famous for its ginger beer. They also make many other fizzy drinks. Their products are sold in over 61 countries around the world.

How Bundaberg Brewed Drinks Started

The company began in Bundaberg in 1960. It started as a small business that bottled and fermented drinks. In 1968, the Fleming family bought the business. It was then called Electra Breweries.

Mr. and Mrs. Fleming (senior) and their children, Cliff and Lee, ran the company. Over the years, more and more people bought their drinks. The company became well-known in Australia and other countries.

Around 2011, the company started its own ginger farm. This helped them make sure they always had enough ginger for their famous ginger beer. In 2018, Bundaberg Brewed Drinks teamed up with PepsiCo. This partnership helps them sell their drinks in the United States. They are still separate companies.
