From Paris to the world

The Island, our global flagship in Central Paris is the ultimate expression of our transformation and our purpose as ‘Créateurs de convivialité’. The Island is a reference to the Paul Ricard Islands located off the coast of Toulon, France – a land of convivialité opening out onto the bustle of this historic neighbourhood.

Created by Saguez & Partners, the innovative layout promotes collaboration, shared experiences and synergies between all Pernod Ricard entities. Set over seven floors and 18,000m2, it’s a flexible working space with different zones to suit different needs. The building incorporates the highest environmentally responsible standards and has High Environmental Quality certification. The Island was awarded Interior Design Magazine’s 2020 “Best of Year Award” and best office building project at the MIPIM Awards 2020. 

The Island hosts 900 employees including Group Headquarters, the EMEA LATAM regional hub, teams from Pernod Ricard France and the French Brand Companies.
