The Ashish Gandham Interview: Part 2
Introduction by: Peter Marshall
Welcome to the second part of my interview with Ashish Gandham, Managing Director Global Travel Retail, Suntory Global Spirits. Here we discuss what Ashish thinks consumers actually want and whether Suntory Global Spirits is meeting their expectations. We also cover tequila’s dynamic – or lack of it – in travel retail, plus what’s happening to gin. Looking to 2026, Ashish is quite clear on strategy and the focus for the portfolio of brands that Suntory Global Spirits commands. Next year looks even better than 2025!
