Partner Brands

In 2019/2020, Partner Brands accounted for 3% of the Group’s total net sales.

This category includes brands belonging to other operators in the Wines & Spirits sector. These are distributed by Rémy Cointreau under global agreements or agreements limited to a particular country or region.

Following the non-renewal of many distribution agreements in recent years (as part of the Group’s move upmarket), the brands still distributed (as of 31 March 2020) are Passoã liqueur and certain spirits of the William Grant & Sons Group.
