E&A Scheer is an expert in procuring and combining rum blends specifically for business-to-business clients. The company manages aging facilities in Liverpool, UK, which includes its subsidiary, The Main Rum Company.

E&A Scheer procures rum from over 60 suppliers spanning across 40 countries, and possesses extensive reserves of matured inventory, which includes exceptional single casks. The company has emphasized that it maintains an impressively short lead time of merely 10 days from the placement of an order to its shipment.

The company holds the belief that it plays a vital role in the high-end rum industry, capable of providing tailor-made rum blends sourced from multiple origins, ensuring unwavering excellence in any desired quantity, and delivering them within a mere 10-day timeframe from the moment of order to shipment.

Platinum Equity’s Small Cap investment team, renowned for their expertise in acquiring businesses in Europe and specializing in the food and beverage sector, spearheaded the E&A Scheer investment.

Notably, Platinum Equity’s existing portfolio encompasses Fantini Wines, a prominent company based in Ortona, Italy.
