Our values

As a producer, we are deeply committed to respecting tradition and promoting sustainable development. We have been investing to build a leading industrial force, which is at the heart of our philosophy of achieving high quality and making it available to all.
2022 will be highly challenging with a complex and uncertain international environment and a historic increase in raw material prices. As an independent group of companies, we will show agility, resilience, and a great capacity for adaptation. In this very competitive environment, we will continue to work with our partners to build leading brands to deliver strong emotional value and perfectly meet the needs of our clients.
I would like to warmly thank all our teams from France Metropolitan and Overseas, UK, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Benelux for their commitment. We will continue to write our history and stay united behind our values.

Jean-Pierre CAYARD CEO of the LA MARTINIQUAISE-BARDINET Group

Independence

Writing our history and making decisions with complete independence, for the long-term benefit of the Group.

Having complete control over the production process is essential for LA MARTINIQUAISE-BARDINET. This has been a key part of the Group’s identity since its creation in 1934. LA MARTINIQUAISE-BARDINET is an independent, family-run Group, and a key player in the wine and spirits industry, distinguished by its complete control over the production process and the sale of its products, thanks to the development of close commercial relationships with its international partners.

Responsibility

Responsible consumption and sustainable development as a mission. We promote responsible drinking and prevention. For us it is intrinsically linked to our passion for W&S with the desire to value expertise, craftsmanship and cultural heritage.

Protecting the environment is our top priority. We talk the talk but more importantly we walk the walk with a strong commitment in all our key production sites through saving energy and water resources, reducing waste & transport, recycling & even producing renewable energy.

We are also engaged locally in developing cultural heritage and wines and spirits tourism.
