Presidente is owned and produced by Cervecería Nacional Dominicana at several breweries in the Dominican Republic. Charles H. Wanzer with other business partners founded the brewery and started brewing the iconic Dominican beer, Presidente, in 1935. The beer was named in honor of the Dominican president Rafael Leónidas Trujillo.

Presidente was initially launched as a dark beer and acquired limited success, but in the 1960s Presidente was transformed into the pilsner that is recognized today. Largely a Caribbean beer for the 20th century, in 2012, Presidente acquired foreign distribution partners and has been expanding Presidente’s market ever since.
