Perspective Writing
The Royal Order of Civil Merit, founded in 1926 by King Alfonso XIII, aims to reward the civic virtues of state officials and the outstanding services of Spanish and foreign citizens who have worked tirelessly for the benefit of Spain and society in its set. The distinction is awarded to individuals and entities that have demonstrated their commitment to the improvement of society and the promotion of national well-being.
The recognition granted to Cervecería Centro Americana reflects the company’s continuous effort and deep commitment to society throughout its long history.
