WHO ARE WE?
Bacardi is a family, a company and a brand
A family-owned company full of passionate employees and iconic brands, shaped by our rich history of spirited entrepreneurship.
Bacardi Limited is built on the enduring legacy of a family. Ours is a vibrant, family owned spirits company, nurtured by seven generations of the Bacardí family. We are the largest, privately held spirits company. Bacardi was founded in 1862 in Santiago de Cuba, when Don Facundo Bacardí Massó revolutionized the spirits industry by creating the world’s first light-bodied rum.
Since then, our Company has grown to encompass an impressive portfolio of more than 200 brands and labels. These include BACARDÍ® rum, the world’s best-selling and most-awarded rum, as well as the world’s most-awarded spirit; GREY GOOSE® vodka, the world’s leading super-premium vodka; DEWAR’S® Blended Scotch whisky, the world’s most awarded blended Scotch; BOMBAY SAPPHIRE® gin, the top valued and fastest growing premium gin in the world; MARTINI® vermouth and sparkling wines, the world’s leading vermouth and the world's favorite Italian sparkling wines; CAZADORES® 100% blue agave tequila, one of the most popular premium tequilas in Mexico and the United States; and other leading and emerging brands including WILLIAM LAWSON’S®, the fastest-growing global Scotch whisky brand; ERISTOFF® vodka, one of the fastest-growing vodka brands in the world; and ST. GERMAIN®, a super-premium elderflower liqueur.
We are focused on building upon our successes by recruiting the best and brightest talent in order to have a well balanced employee population that reflects our diverse society, customers and consumers. Around the globe we employ nearly 6,000 people who are the guardians of a tradition of excellence dating back more than 152 years. Our products are sold in more than 150 markets worldwide by our own companies and third-party distributors, and we operate 27 production facilities – for bottling, distilling and manufacturing – in 16 countries.
Bacardi Limited refers to the Bacardi group of companies, including Bacardi International Limited. The Company is headquartered in Hamilton, Bermuda.
OUR WAYS OF WORKING
Our family legacy has positively influenced our ways of working and has shaped the values to which our employees aspire. We’re caring, like a family, and not only internally, but also in the wider communities in which we operate. This is demonstrated by our commitment to both act responsibly and promote the choice to drink responsibly. We trust one another, and through that trust are able to forge strong teams and networks that empower our matrix organization structure. We’re passionate, reflecting our Latin heritage, and this means that we commit more than just time to our work: we commit energy, heart and soul. We are dedicated to being a role model in our industry, and we approach everything we do with Integrity First. Together, our values help us create what we’re most proud of: our True Heart and Winning Spirit – both in our home markets and across the world.
