Who is E&A Scheer?

The history of E&A Scheer

About us

E&A Scheer was founded 3 centuries ago and has since then been active in the Rum world. Starting out as wine and Arrack merchants, we later began to focus on Rum. Soon after, the company began to blend Rum for consistency of quality. 

We now offer Rum with custom-made recipes created by our experienced master blenders from our Dutch warehouse and unique and rare aged Rum in barrels from our daughter company in Liverpool, UK.

As a significant buyer and supplier of Rum in bulk, E&A Scheer plays a pivotal role in the global Rum industry. We strive to use our leadership to drive Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) related issues across the supply chain and make a significant and sustainable impact. We expect all employees and stakeholders to act in line with our principles.

Our mission 

When it comes to ESG, we really do mean business. We have mapped out our mission for the next five to ten years, outlining clear goals and defining measurable actions for the short, medium, and long term. And we constantly monitor these goals using a number of dedicated standards, including our supplier rating on the SEDEX platform. We understand the journey will take time and team effort, but we are proud to be making headway.

We are building our ESG strategy UN Sustainable Development Goals 8, 12, and 13 – and will go beyond existing certifications wherever possible. In doing so, we aim to leverage a pivotal position in the bulk Rum supply chain between producer and client/consumer to promote responsible action for people and planet.
