Diageo is a company with a rich Scottish heritage – our roots can be traced back to 1627 and the Haig family. Since then, Scotland has played an important role in shaping Diageo and we now export our premium brands to 180 markets around the world.
Scotland is one of Diageo’s largest spirit supply centres responsible for producing around 50 million cases of leading brands of Scotch whisky and white spirits annually. We employ around 3,000 people in Scotland, working in over 50 communities across the country. Around 85% of Diageo’s production in Scotland is sold overseas.
