Ölgerðin Egill Skallagrímsson was established in 1913. The first products were beers, but the company soon gained a reputation as a producer of a range of high-quality drinks. The operation has expanded gradually over the years, and now foods and drinks are imported, marketed and distributed alongside Ölgerðin’s own products.
Ölgerðin has been the Pepsi bottler in Iceland since 1992 and the marketshare has increased gradually since. Ölgerdin service brands like Nestlé, Pepsi, Tuborg, Red Bull, Merrild, Illy, EAS, Hatting, McCain, Haribo, Mentos, Moet&Chandon, Masi, Piccini, Smirnoff, Tanqueray, Baileys, Johnnie Walker, Dom Perignon, Hennessy and other top brands.
Each brand has its brand manager who takes care of the marketing schedule
