The ABC expanded rapidly in the 1950s when Fraser and Neave came under the control of the Overseas-Chinese and Banking Corporation (OCBC). An additional plant was added and procedures were gradually mechanised. Production ceased in 1990 when operations were relocated to Tuas. The brew master house was gazetted for conservation in 1993.
