Pernod Ricard is deeply shocked and saddened by the war that has unfolded in Ukraine. Nothing could be further from how we, as a Group, view human connections, than this horrific situation.

The safety and security of our employees has always been and will continue to be our primary concern. The entire Group is fully mobilized to assist our colleagues in Ukraine with whom we strive to keep in touch. We are closely monitoring the situation as it develops and addressing the many repercussions on a broader scale.

Pernod Ricard has made a donation to support the work of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), and as many of our employees expressed a wish to contribute, we have pledged to double the amount of our employees' donations. We have also created an internal solidarity fund to support our Ukrainian colleagues which is being funded by Pernod Ricard and open to contributions from our employees around the world.

Pernod Ricard has suspended its exports to Russia where 100% of its activities are based on imported wine and spirits.
