San Salvador has small industrial zones scattered throughout the municipality, although most of them are concentrated in the eastern section near the border with Soyapango. Much of the industry is related to food processing, beverage manufacturing, and sugar refining. Construction materials ranging from [[ceramic tile]]s to [[Concrete masonry unit|concrete blocks]] and concrete are produced in large quantities; [[plastics extrusion]], including the production of [[piping]], is also an important industry.

Industrias La Constancia, El Salvador's largest brewer and bottler of purified water, dominates the Salvadoran export market of beers and bottled water. The company became part of the second largest brewer in the world, [[SABMiller]], in 2005. Its flagship brand is ''Pilsener'', a [[pilsner]] style [[lager]] beer, the national beer of El Salvador. In 2011, La Constancia centralized its operations and opened its new headquarters in San Salvador, where it moved in 1928 from the [[Santa Ana Department]]. The company produces the ''Agua Cristal'' brand of bottled water, the best selling in El Salvador and in the Central American region. The Coca-Cola company uses the La Constancia installations to manufacture its beverage brands sold in El Salvador and the rest of Central America.
