Emperador
Inc., the world’s largest brandy company and the Philippines’ largest liquor
conglomerate, recorded nearly PHP9 billion in consolidated revenues in the
first quarter of 2016 with net income amounting to PHP1.4 billion.
The first
quarter of this year also marked a significant milestone with Emperador taking
over 286-year old Bodegas Fundador from Beam Suntory. Emperador and Fundador
brandy production facilities, combined, make Emperador Inc. the largest brandy
entity in the world. Winston Co, president of Emperador Inc., said, “We have an
unprecedented and compelling ownership of vineyards, bottling facilities and
distilleries. We already have 1,500 hectares of vineyard land, roughly
1,000,000 square meters of cellar and bottling facilities, and three
distilleries in Spain.”
Mr. Co added,
“In 2014, the acquisition of Scotch whisky company Whyte and Mackay
jump-started Emperador Inc’s transformation into becoming a world-class
company. The acquisition of Fundador brandy sealed the deal making our company
truly global with access to 100 countries. And today, our brandy and whisky
product portfolio is comprised of standard, premium, super premium, and luxury
offerings. While maintaining our brandy dominance in local liquor brands with
Emperador brandy, we have enviable presence in foreign liquor brands in the
Philippines with our Fundador brandy and single malt brands The Dalmore and Jura.”
Emperador
Inc. is majority-owned by Alliance Global Group, Inc.
