Simonds Farsons Cisk plc, commonly known as Farsons, is a Maltese food and beverage conglomerate. The businesses of the Farsons Group include brewing, production, sale and distribution of beers and soft drinks; importation, wholesale and retail of food and beverages; operation of franchised food retailers; and property development.

History

Established in 1928, Farsons was the first brewery to be established on the island, in the town of Hamrun, near the capital city Valletta. The brewery's first beer was Farsons Pale Ale, brewed to meet the preferences of the British garrison and navy stationed in Malta at the time. In 1929, Farsons merged with the H.G Simonds brewery from Reading to establish Simonds Farsons Ltd.

In the same year and a short distance from the Farsons brewery, the Marquis John Scicluna, whose family had established the first privately owned local bank, opened the Malta Export Brewery. While Simonds Farsons Ltd had been granted the licence to brew ales, the Malta Export Brewery was granted a temporary exclusive licence to brew Bavarian-style lagers under the names Cisk Pilsner and Cisk Munchener.{{citation needed|reason=Your explanation here|date=August 2015}}

Following twenty years of rivalry, the Malta Export Brewery merged with Simonds Farsons Ltd in 1948 to form the company Simonds Farsons Cisk Ltd which soon after diversified its product portfolio and interests.

Beers

Farsons beers include lagers, ales and stouts. Its Cisk lager range includes: Cisk (Lager), Cisk Export (Premium Lager), Cisk Pilsner (Premium German style Pils), Cisk Extra Strong (Extra Strong Lager), Cisk Excel (Low Carb Lager), Cisk Chill Range (Lemon, Berry and Ginger Lime Lager). Other beers include Hopleaf (Pale Ale), Farsons Double Red (English style strong ale), Farsons IPA (India Pale Ale), Blue Label (Light Mild), Lacto (Milk Stout), Traditional Shandy, as well as Carlsberg, Skol and Budweiser under licence. The company also has a "Smooth 'n' Creamy" draught and Cans variant of Blue Label. Cisk Lager, Cisk Excel, Cisk Export, Cisk Pilsner, Blue Label, are also available in 20 Litre and 30 Litre kegs for export markets.

The name "Cisk" originates from Giuseppe Scicluna's nickname "Iċ-Ċisk" which developed out of the local mispronunciation of the word "cheque" which was introduced into local circulation by the Scicluna Bank. Aside from brewing, Farsons is also the franchisee of Pepsico International and produces and packages a variety of local and international non-alcoholic beverages including its non-alcoholic citrus based bitter sweet soft drink, Kinnie. In addition to Malta, Kinnie is also produced under licence in Australia.{{citation needed|reason=Your explanation here|date=August 2015}}

Subsidiaries

The group represents and imports a number of international food and beverage brands which are managed by Farsons Beverage Imports Company and Quintano Foods. The group is the franchisee for Burger King, Pizza Hut and KFC and manages this operation through Food Chain Limited. The group is further involved in property management and development through its fully owned subsidiary Trident Developments.[1]
