Redwood City, CA, September 18, 2025. Ivalua, a global leader in spend management, today announced that Pernod Ricard, a world’s leading producer of premium international spirits, has selected Ivalua’s platform to unify and streamline procurement processes for all its entities.
With a presence in 60 countries, over 18,000 employees, and an extensive portfolio of prestigious brands, Pernod Ricard is one of the largest wine and spirits businesses worldwide. It recorded net sales of € 10.9 billion in 2025.
Recognizing the strategic importance of procurement in a broader digital transformation landscape, Pernod Ricard sought a solution to consolidate procurement processes across the Group, discontinuing the use of different solutions by its legal entities.
Ivalua’s configurable and scalable platform emerged as the ideal choice to harmonize procurement processes at a global scale, while maintaining the flexibility required for local adaptations across Pernod Ricard’s diverse business units.
The project will modernize Source-to-Receipt operations with a phased rollout across all Pernod Ricard entities in the coming years. Ivalua’s seamless integration with existing ERP systems and third-party data providers will enable Pernod Ricard to ensure smooth interoperability and future-proof operations.
By centralizing supplier management and leveraging end-to-end workflow automations, Pernod Ricard will enhance vendor management, strengthen collaboration, and mitigate risks more effectively. With greater visibility and embedded analytics, it will be able to better monitor and optimize operational performance.
Additionally, Pernod Ricard aims to boost user adoption and compliance by delivering a seamless end-to-end user experience and simplified workflows.
“At Pernod Ricard, procurement plays a strategic role within our vision of operational excellence and sustainable sourcing. By partnering with Ivalua, Pernod Ricard will not only unlock efficiencies across the Group, but also spread a common procurement language to foster operational excellence,” Sarah Kerlan, Chief Procurement Officer at Pernod Ricard.
