About Us
Diageo was created in 1997 but its business is built on the principles and foundations laid years before by giants of the industry - Arthur Guinness, John Walker, Elizabeth Cumming and many more. Today, Diageo is a world class leader in beverage alcohol, producing an outstanding collection of over 200 brands and owning the top two largest spirit brands in the world, Johnnie Walker and Smirnoff and 20 of the world's top 100 spirit brands. Its portfolio also includes Mortlach, Singleton and Talisker Malt Whiskies, Cîroc and Ketel One vodkas, Captain Morgan, Baileys, Don Julio, Tanqueray and Guinness.
Diageo has built a strong platform for growth - through investment in its own brands, and by acquisition to broaden the geographical footprint and category depth and range. The company's strong local business units are well-positioned to win in increasingly competitive and fast-paced environments. Diageo's portfolio is well-diversified across price-tiers, enabling it to participate where consumer opportunity is greatest, and to capture shifts in consumer preference.
