Ang became a key figure in the company after years of work around cars, manufacturing, and corporate leadership.
He started by fixing and selling used Japanese car and truck engines. Later, he worked with Eduardo Cojuangco selling aluminum wheels. In the 1980s, he led the magwheel company Commodore. He moved up at San Miguel over time, becoming vice-chairman in 1999 and president and COO in 2002. In 2012, he gained control after acquiring Cojuangco's shares.

How Ramon Ang built his business
Ang's money comes from a broad set of businesses tied to San Miguel and Top Frontier. San Miguel started in brewing, then expanded into food and beverages. The company is still a leader there, but its biggest revenue base now comes from power and infrastructure. That mix helps explain why Forbes places him in the Food & Beverage industry while also describing his wealth as diversified. He is also listed by Forbes as self-made.
His path was hands-on from the start. He worked in his father's auto repair shop and sold used Japanese engines. He later sold aluminum wheels with Eduardo Cojuangco and ran Commodore in the 1980s. At San Miguel, he moved from vice-chairman to president and COO, then took control in 2012. In 2024, he became chairman and CEO, while John Paul Ang moved up to president and COO to help run the group.
Projects behind the scale of San Miguel

It also started a $3 billion project to revamp Manila's international airport in 2024. These are major infrastructure bets, and they sit alongside the group's established operations in food, beverages, and power.
Ang also joined other business leaders on a new energy project in 2024. He teamed up with Sabin Aboitiz and Manuel Pangilinan to form a $3.3 billion integrated liquefied natural gas facility in Batangas, south of Manila.
