Pernod Ricard South Africa is the number two distributor of leading premium spirits brands in South Africa — including Jameson whiskey, Absolut vodka and GH Mumm champagne. As a company distinguished by its convivial culture and dynamic team of people, it is also a Top Employer for the first time this year.
Pernod Ricard is a global business and all the benefits of ‘glocalisation’ apply. As a local operation Pernod Ricard South Africa can leverage global support and best practice; however, its business philosophy is to balance this with what is best practice competitively in the South African market.
