Local and State significance to the growth and expansion of the brewing industry and to the development of the Canning Vale industrial area.
The Swan Brewery Company Ltd. moved from it's city location to Canning Vale in 1978. The new complex was officially opened by the then Premier, Sir Charles Court in March 1979. The move to Canning Vale was part of the ongoing history of brewing in the State which commenced with the Albion Brewery which opened in 1837 at the foot of Spring St and Mounts Bay Road. In 1880 an icehouse, malthouse and brewery were constructed at the foot of Mount Eliza. In 1886 the partnership between Ferguson and Mumme was dissolved and Mumme continued as part owner of the Swan Brewery. The Swan Brewery Compnay Ltd was incorporated in Melbourne in 1887. In 1928 the Emu Brewery Ltd which can trace it's origins back to the Albion Brewery was purchased.
The opening of the brewery in Canning Vale marked a period of industrial expansion in the Canning region.
