La Béninoise was created in Cotonou, Benin in 1957. It was created by BRACODI, an importer of Ivory Coast beverages, who named the brewery Society of Breweries of Dahomey (another name for Benin). In 1972, a coup d’état led to the nationalization of the brewery, which then was renamed La Béninoise. However, financial difficulties caused the company to be privatized again, and in 1992 it was sold to the French company Groupe Castel.
