The challenging health situation of the 2020/2021 financial year has not dampened the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) ambitions of Rémy Cointreau – quite the contrary. CSR is a long-standing priority for the Group and its exceptional brands, which pushed ahead with initiatives to promote biodiversity, the preservation of terroirs, the circular economy, and partner communities. The Group’s brands also played their part in managing the health crisis, notably by actively participating in the production of hand sanitizer.
As in the previous year, the Group demonstrated its structural strength. Resilient to the unforeseen collapse in demand, it proved to be highly adaptable when the Chinese and US markets recovered. Despite the impact of the pandemic, it ended the year with positive organic growth in sales and significant growth in earnings. This performance would not have been possible without the exceptional commitment of the teams, which demonstrated their agility and imagination to start inventing the world of tomorrow with a head start.
