Our main aim is to deliver a top class service to our customers and satisfy consumer needs with our premium range of brands.

Indeed Jameson, the world’s leading Irish whiskey brand has now reached sales of two million cases for the first time. (2006) Over the last decade, sales of Jameson have doubled. In the past year alone, figures in the United States, Jameson’s largest market, show an increase in excess of 20% with other countries such as South Africa, Russia and Brazil achieving exceptional growth rates. Another mark of its international success is that for the first time, Jameson has made it into the top fifty selling spirit brands worldwide and is now ranked with the international elite. Jameson is the fastest growing international whiskey brand in the world and one of the fastest growing spirits brands.

The past six months have been an exciting period of development for the global reach of Jameson with the launch of a new €40 million international marketing campaign, half of which is being spent on media.

Going forward, with the continuous growth of Jameson and the additional brands brought into the portfolio we are confident that Dillon Bass can only continue to grow.
