These strategic moves have reinforced Pernod Ricard’s capacity to tailor offerings to diverse consumer tastes and to drive growth in high-potential markets.

Today, Pernod Ricard operates in more than 160 countries and maintains a network of over 90 manufacturing sites, blending facilities and research centers. Its global structure is organized into regional subsidiaries covering Europe, the Americas, Asia-Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and Greater China, enabling the group to respond to local market dynamics and regulatory environments. The company emphasizes sustainable development through its “Good Times from a Good Place” program, which focuses on responsible consumption, water stewardship, carbon reduction and biodiversity preservation.

Leadership is headed by Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Alexandre Ricard, who represents the third generation of Ricard family involvement and has overseen a period of innovation and digital transformation since his appointment in 2015. Reporting to the board, a management committee comprising experts in global marketing, finance, supply chain and sustainability guides day-to-day operations. With a workforce of approximately 19,000 employees and a shared commitment to premiumization and local entrepreneurship, Pernod Ricard continues to pursue balanced growth across mature and emerging markets.
