The establishment of the brewery Volfas Engelman dates back to the 19th century. Today the brewery produces beer, cider, alcoholic mixed drinks, kvass and energy drinks. Volfas Engelman brewery is named after its two founders. Since 2012, the CEO of the company is Marius Horbačauskas. It has more than 230 employees, making Volfas Engelman the second-largest brewery in Lithuania. At the moment 99.57 percent of Volfas Engelman shares belong to the Finnish Olvi Company Group. In 1994, the brewery "Ragutis" was privatized and reorganized into a joint-stock company. In 1997, at the beginning, 51 percent of the shares of "Ragutis" were purchased by the Czech company "Pilsner Urquell". In 1997, the latter company transferred a strategic share package to the Estonian beer company "A. le Coq", operated by the Finnish company Olvi.[2] In April 12, 2011, the brewery was returned to its historical name — "Volfas Engelman".[3]
