Bacardí family (approx. 600 descendants of founder Don Facundo Bacardí Massó) Bacardi Limited is a privately held spirits company whose equity is owned by members of the extended Bacardí family, typically through a web of family holding companies and trusts rather than in public markets. Contemporary reporting on a 2003 capital-structure proposal noted that all 23.5 million Bacardi shares were then held by about 600 Bacardí family members, underscoring that ownership was entirely within the family. The company’s own materials and recent corporate sustainability report continue to describe Bacardi Limited as a family‑owned, privately held group and the world’s largest privately held international spirits company, with seven generations of family ownership and no public float. A 2020 Reuters report on internal family disputes further indicates that Bacardi Ltd’s shares are largely held via family-related trusts (including vehicles that together hold about 6% of the company), reinforcing that control remains with Bacardí family interests rather than outside investors. External analyses such as Bloomberg’s liquor‑dynasty coverage estimate the Bacardí family’s collective holding in Bacardi Limited to be worth on the order of tens of billions of dollars but do not disclose individual ownership percentages, so precise stakes of specific family members are not publicly available. | Family | — | Dec 2025 |
