FUTURE FORWARD

A Letter from Our Chairman and CEO 


Our story began in 1862 with a single distillery and a singular vision: to reinvent rum for the world. Our Founder, Don Facundo Bacardí Massó, set out to create a premium, light-bodied rum he could be proud to share with his friends and family. His namesake creation was soon being poured into cocktail glasses around the world, garnering more than 1,000 awards for quality, taste and innovation. Today, Bacardi is proud to be the largest family-owned international spirits company—a transformation that didn’t occur overnight. It took 162 years of hard work spanning seven generations of people pouring their passion into both the spirits we create and the good we do in the world. Their hard work has become our living legacy—a legacy of good.

The path that inspires a better tomorrow is the good we do today.
