Our take

Pernod Ricard is the French-founded, global wine and spirits group. Currently sitting as number two worldwide, the company has a clear goal to become the leader of its sector. Amongst its broad portfolio of brands includes Absolut, Beefeater, Jameson, Jacob’s Creek, and Malibu.

Founded in 1975, the company has since found international success with consistent growth across multiple markets. The company’s model has shifted to best accommodate this expansion, becoming a decentralized group. While the global organization operates from Paris, this HQ respects the operational autonomy of its affiliates across the globe, meaning local customer’s needs are not only met but anticipated for maximum effect.

Pernod Ricard has plans to invest in anticipated growth categories. It has been active in portfolio management with Sovereign Brands, Código 1530 and Nocheluna, and will reinforce these partnerships to strengthen its US market exposure and further enhance its consumer-centric portfolio development. Moreover, a number of leadership hires across its international team indicate its continued global focus.
