Working through its Wholesale Beverage Division, Jacques Scott is the Islands’ largest distributor of wine, beer and spirits.

The finest French, Italian and American wines (including Antinori, Gaja, Bertani, Moet & Chandon, Jadot, Drouhin, Jolivet, Guigal, Ridge, Shafer and Beringer, to name just a few) make up the bulk of the company’s wine-import business. We also import wines from Australia, New Zealand, Spain, Portugal, Chile, Germany and South Africa, and draw up wine lists for many of the top local restaurants.

Jacques Scott is also the exclusive distributor for Heineken, Cayman’s best-selling beer. Our beer distribution also takes in Coors Light, made in the United States, Amstel Light, Presidente (the biggest selling beer in the Caribbean) and a range of beers from Labatt Breweries of Canada. We are also an exclusive distributor for the world’s largest drinks company Diageo, maker of spirits such as Smirnoff Vodka, Johnnie Walker, Crown Royal Canadian Whisky and Baileys Irish Cream, to mention but a few. Also represented is Appleton Rum, the most popular rum in the Cayman Islands.

The Wholesale Food Division boasts goods from manufacturers worldwide, spanning everything from breakfast cereals to mineral waters. The company is an exclusive distributor for Nestlé, the world’s leading food group, and Kraft Foods. We stock a comprehensive range of their products, including Carnation milk, Nescafé coffee, Maggi soups, Planters peanuts and Nabisco snacks and bakery products.

The third of our four divisions, Island Supply Company Limited, provides food, catering and food-service supplies to hotels, restaurants and institutions in Cayman. It designs and installs complete kitchens and bar equipment for clients. It has an attractive showroom that is open to both the trade and general public, displaying commercial equipment for home use.

Under our Retail Wines & Spirits Division, the company operates six stores throughout Grand Cayman. Three are duty-paid wine and spirits outlets in the George Town/Seven Mile Beach areas, including the renowned Jacques Scott Fine Wine Store, and one has recently moved to a new shopping mall location in Savannah. We also run the biggest duty-free store in the departure lounge of Grand Cayman’s Owen Roberts International Airport, as well as a gift store in the check-in area.

Lastly, we have a share in four duty-free liquor stores in George Town.
