Edrington

Edrington owns some of the leading Scotch whisky and rum brands in the world including The Macallan, The Famous Grouse, Highland Park, Cutty Sark, The Glenrothes, Brugal and Snow Leopard vodka. In 2016, it added Tequila Partida to its portfolio in the Americas.

Headquartered in Scotland, the company employs around 3,000 people in its companies and joint venture operations worldwide, with over 70% employed outside the UK. The company owns its route to market in 13 countries, and operates the remainder through joint-venture and third party agreements.

Its origins stretch back to the mid-19th century, when William Robertson founded the Robertson & Baxter company in Glasgow, Scotland. In 1885 the company took a share holding in the North British Distillery Company. In May 2014, Edrington established Edrington Americas, a wholly owned sales, marketing and distribution company for the US.
