Groupe Bourbon may not make bourbon, but it does just about everything else. The diversified company operates through three main divisions: distribution, which runs food production, packaging businesses, 20 Score-brand supermarkets, and Cora hypermarkets in Réunion, Madagascar, and Vietnam; maritime, which includes tug operating, cargo shipping, and offshore assistance businesses; and agricultural, which runs industrial fishing, sugar cane and rum processing, as well as dairy and juice product operations. Groupe Bourbon has been focusing on developing its food processing and retail businesses outside of France, primarily in Vietnam. Belgian holding company Gevaert owns over 10% of the company.
