From the record
Summary
Shanghai government/Putuo heritage sources trace the city's first brewery lineage to the early 1910s, the 1935 Yichang Road plant and UB beer. Surviving bottling, office and brewhouse buildings are protected industrial heritage and incorporated into Mengqing Park/Museum. Recorded in the source pass as "Shanghai Union Brewery / Scandinavian Brewery / Shanghai Brewery lineage" — the suffix names the production site, not a separate company. Local name: 联合啤酒股份有限公司 / 顺和啤酒厂 / 上海啤酒有限公司. Historical private/foreign ownership; later municipal/state period.
