Thinking of selling your Rum in bulk but unsure where to start?
Whether you’re an established distillery or an emerging producer, finding the right buyer can make all the difference. At E&A Scheer, we specialise in building long-term partnerships with Rum suppliers around the world. Here’s everything you need to know about working with us—and how to take the first step.
Why supply your Rum to E&A Scheer?
If you’re a Rum producer looking to take your business to the next level, we invite you to explore our story. As one of the world’s most experienced and trusted bulk Rum buyers, we work with distilleries from over 40 countries and are always open to new partnerships—whether you produce traditional Rum, Batavia Arrack, or Cachaça.
A Trusted Partner in the Global Rum Industry
With a history that stretches back more than 300 years, E&A Scheer specialises in sourcing, blending and supplying Rum in bulk. Today, we proudly collaborate with partners and clients across more than 60 countries, spanning the drinks, flavour & fragrance, Ready-to-Drink, and confectionery industries.
We adopt a long-term approach, prioritising the development of enduring partnerships over one-time transactions. We offer continuity, market insights, and support where needed. For those seeking greater predictability than what auctions or fragmented networks typically provide, our model presents a stable alternative.
What We're Looking For
The approach is open and inclusive—we’re interested in every style and category of Rum, from light to heavy, aged to young, single cask to blends, even rare and experimental expressions. Whether you’re a small distillery with a niche product or a larger producer with surplus volumes, there’s room for conversation.
How the Process Works
Getting started is simple. The first step is to reach out to us through our contact form. Once we hear from you, we aim to respond within 24 working hours. From there, we may request a sample of your Rum to evaluate its style and quality. If there’s a good fit, we’ll move into a deeper conversation about how we can work together, including what kind of support or commercial structure might best suit your business.
The team has extensive experience working directly with distillers, understanding their challenges, and helping them find the right path forward. We believe good partnerships are built on transparency, communication, and shared goals.
Why Work with Us?
Once a partnership is established, a range of possibilities can be offered:
- Access to international markets: We connect Rum producers with independent bottlers and blenders worldwide.
- Support in inventory management: We provide tools to manage inventories efficiently.
- Solutions for surplus stock: In cases of surplus or aging barrels, we collaborate on strategies to convert these into working capital, allowing resources to be reinvested into the business.
- Focus on sustainability: Through our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program, we assist producers in integrating ESG goals into their operations.
- Relevance in a changing market: With the growing emphasis on sustainability from consumers and industry organizations, this support can enhance a brand's credibility and positioning in the long term.
Opening the Door to Global Opportunities
Partnering with E&A Scheer can offer both stability and increased visibility. If you’re looking to expand internationally or explore new markets, we can introduce your Rum to a global audience. From Europe to Asia and beyond, we’ve supported several distilleries in expanding their global footprint.
