Profil Financier
William Goldring & family occupe actuellement le rang #412 du classement mondial StarFortune (secteur food & beverage). Fortune nette estimée : $9.0 B ($0 sur 24h).
William Goldring's Sazerac Company owns some 500 alcohol brands and a dozen distilleries in the U.S., Canada, France, Ireland and India.
The $4.3 billion (est. sales) business produces storied spirits such Pappy Van Winkle and George T. Stagg, but has out-grown the industry thanks to lower-shelf offerings like Fireball Cinnamon Whisky and Buzzballz.
Goldring took over the alcohol business built up by his father, Stephen Goldring (d. 1996), in the 1960s.
He sold off much of the family's wholesaling operations in 2010 for an estimated $400 million, and started rolling up spirits brands such as Southern Comfort, Goldschlager and Myers's Rum.
In 2026 Jack Daniels maker Brown-Forman rejected his offer to buy the company for $15 billion.
