Tanzanian Brewer to Start Trading Shares in Dar es Salaam

(Updates with comments from the Stock Exchange of the third paragraph.)

July 12 (Reuters) - Diageo Plc East African Breweries Ltd unit plans to sell its stake in Tanzania Breweries Ltd on the Stock Exchange of Dar es Salaam Stock within the next two months, said Gabriel Kitua, director of the Stock Exchange Executive .

East African Breweries, based in Nairobi, may sell its 20 percent in Tanzania Breweries, the local unit of SABMiller plc, by about mid-August, said by phone today Kitua from Dar es Salaam , the commercial capital of Tanzania.In June, Tanzania has approved the purchase of the Kenyan brewer a 51 per cent in the Serengeti Breweries Ltd., provided that we then sell its 20 percent in Tanzania Breweries.

"We work in the final schedule with regulators, but expect to launch the offer in the near future," the spokesman Serengeti Teddy Mapunda wrote in an e-mail response to questions on July 5.

Precision Air Services Ltd, a Tanzanian airline, can also hold its first public offering in September, Kitua said. “We aren’t in position to give the exact dates yet,” he said.

Precision Air would be the first company in the transport industry to be listed on the Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange. The bourse currently has 15 listed companies, after delisting National Investment Co. this month, according to its website.

Other companies that may start trading their shares on the bourse this year include National Bank of Commerce Ltd., a unit of Absa Group Ltd., Peter Machunde, a member of the exchange’s board, said on March 8.

NBC’s listing is still being discussed by shareholders and hasn’t reached management level yet, Managing Director Lawrence Mafuru said on April 29.
