Pernod Ricard is deeply shocked and saddened by the war that has unfolded in Ukraine. Nothing could be further from how we, as a Group, view human connections, than this horrific situation.
Pernod Ricard is deeply shocked and saddened by the war that has unfolded in Ukraine. Nothing could be further from how we, as a Group, view human connections, than this horrific situation.
The safety and security of our employees has always been and will continue to be our primary concern. The entire Group is fully mobilized to assist our colleagues in Ukraine with whom we strive to keep in touch. We are closely monitoring the situation as it develops and addressing the many repercussions on a broader scale.
Pernod Ricard has made a donation to support the work of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), and as many of our employees expressed a wish to contribute, we have pledged to double the amount of our employees’ donations. We have also created an internal solidarity fund to support our Ukrainian colleagues which is being funded by Pernod Ricard and open to contributions from our employees around the world.
Pernod Ricard has suspended its exports to Russia.

About pernod ricard
Pernod Ricard is the world’s No 2 in wines and spirits with consolidated sales of €8,824 million in FY 2021. Created in 1975 by the merger of Ricard and Pernod, the Group has undergone sustained development, based on both organic growth and acquisitions: Seagram (2001), Allied Domecq (2005) and Vin&Sprit (2008).
Pernod Ricard, which owns 16 of the Top 100 Spirits Brands, holds one of the most prestigious and comprehensive brand portfolios in the industry, including: Absolut Vodka, Ricard pastis, Ballantine’s, Chivas Regal, Royal Salute, and The Glenlivet Scotch whiskies, Jameson Irish whiskey, Martell cognac, Havana Club rum, Beefeater gin, Malibu liqueur, Mumm and Perrier-Jouët champagnes, as well Jacob’s Creek, Brancott Estate, Campo Viejo, and Kenwood wines.
Pernod Ricard’s brands are distributed across 160+ markets and by its own salesforce in 73 markets. The Group’s decentralised organisation empowers its 18,500 employees to be true on-the-ground ambassadors of its vision of “Créateurs de Convivialité.” As reaffirmed by the Group’s strategic plan, “Transform and Accelerate,” deployed in 2018, Pernod Ricard’s strategy focuses on investing in long-term, profitable growth for all stakeholders.
The Group remains true to its three founding values: entrepreneurial spirit, mutual trust, and a strong sense of ethics, as illustrated by the 2030 Sustainability and Responsibility roadmap supporting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), “Good times from a good place.” In recognition of Pernod Ricard’s strong commitment to sustainable development and responsible consumption, it has received a Gold rating from Ecovadis.
