Molson Inc.

The Firm

What started off as a small local brewery grew into a national symbol and a world-class Corporation. Since 1786, the Molson brewery withstood the test of time becoming North Americans oldest beer maker and an International symbol for Canada.

Our study is based on Molson Inc. whose founder John Molson opened his first brewery in Montreal, as seen here.

View of the birthplace of Molson’s brewery as it stands today on Notre Dame Street, Montreal.

Today with 3,650 employees and seven breweries across the country, Molson is one of Canada’s oldest consumer brand names and North America’s oldest beer brand. Molson also plays a major role in the sports industry. They own and operate the Molson center, Montreal’s sports and entertainment facility, as well as the Montreal Canadians hockey club, the most successful professional sports teams of all time who hold 24 Stanley Cups. Molson also has a 49.9 % partnership of Coors Canada and 24.95% of Molson USA, who distributes and fosters brands in the United States.

Molson is changing its views once again by having assembled a premiere management team with experience in the North American and international markets. The firm has four long-term goals.

1. Encourage shareholders to get closer to Molson employees by bringing together their values and economic Interests.

2. Operating more strategically.

3. Being more efficient by reducing cost and improving productivity.

4. Look for ways to grow both domestically, and internationally.

...sion of its plants, which resulted in an increase in production and a greater number of employees. This required the communication of too much technical detail, where it would be impossible to interact without changing their business environment. The solution to this fourth revolutionary stage is to move towards more collaboration.

    ‘Roots Nationalism’ was a product of the globalizing world economy, of the growing emphasis on branded clothing and lifestyles, and of the particularities of the national crisis in Canada” (Carstairs 2012). This statement clearly argues that the brand ‘Roots’ created Canadian identity and used it as a mechanism to sell their product. Carstairs also mentioned that “over the past two decades, Roots, along with other companies such as Molson (a beer company whose leading brand, Canadian, features a maple leaf) and Tim Hortons (a chain of coffee and doughnut shops created by Canadian hockey great Tim Horton that capitalizes on Canadians’ love of doughnuts and coffee) has created a new type of branded nationalism in Canada” as this can be called stereotypes of Canadian lifestyle and using Canadian symbols to promote and sell products (Carstairs 2012). Furthermore, in 1983, “Roots was declared a good example of how a very human-orientated business can be carried on in the 80’s through integrity, quality and honestly” as this just shows how beneficial it is for people to have Roots merchandise through the manipulation of branding using nationalism (Patricia

  • Louis Riel Changed Manitoba Forever

    “I know that through the grace of God, I am the founder of Manitoba,” (Riel, 1885). This quote, by Louis Riel whilst he was on trial in Regina still stands true in today where Manitobans we are constantly feeling the presence of Riel’s legacy and accomplishments. He was the one who originally set the rights that Manitobans and Métis should have. Yet another way he affected Manitoba was in the Manitoba Act of 1870. Furthermore, he gave not only Manitobans, but French-Canadians and Métis alike an icon to venerate. Manitoba would not be what it is today without Louis Riel.

    It is the oldest venture in Canada and it inspired many by its dominance in the fur trading industry during its early years. They equipped their own armies, minted their own coins and even issued their own medals. The company had controlled fully one-third of present-day Canadian territory and was thought by many to be a kingdom by itself in the fur industry. They had trading posts from the very north Arctic Ocean to Hawaii and as far south as San Francisco. HBC's revenue didn't simply generate from this one-way trade in furs to Europe.

  • The Irish Ambivalence In 19th Century Canada

    1807 Words  | 4 Pages

    Throughout the 20th century, the Irish-Canadian community has been foundational to the evolution of Canada's national identity, whether it was with the leadership of Baie-Comeau's Brian Mulroney, whose historical legacy includes NAFTA or the Shamrock summit, or the ineradicable impact of the music groups from Eastern Canada on the country's cultural sphere. Despite having such a mark upon the country's growth, the cohabitation between Irish and Canadian populations was also one of struggle. This paper will explore some of the pivotal historical events, between the Irish and Canadian populations, in the 19th century.

  • Adolphus Busch

    1120 Words  | 3 Pages

    Adolphus Busch was a salesman, and perhaps the greatest ever heard of in America. Granted that he knew good beer and ever sought after it, the fact remains that he did not know how to make it at all. In the same course of time he found men who did, but that was a mere detail. He sold the bad almost as efficiently as he sold the good. He could have sold anything. At one point in the early career of Anheuser Busch, its product was so inferior that St. Louis rowdies were known to project mouthfuls of it back over the bar. Adolphus kept on selling it, and it became better, and eventually the best in America.
