Charles Boinaud

Vice President @ Syndicat des Maisons de Cognac

About

As the heir to a know-how passed down through generations, I lead Maison Boinaud with the ambition to combine the excellence of our spirits with innovation. Our mission is to produce responsibly, with respect for the land, the people, and the territories that sustain us. In parallel, I founded Boinaud & Co, our family-owned and entrepreneurial holding company, to unite the family around a common project. Its purpose is to preserve, develop, and transmit a diversified heritage – spirits, real estate, hospitality, and private equity – with a long-term and responsible vision. Through these two commitments, my aim is to anchor our actions in the long term: to reconcile tradition and entrepreneurship, and to actively contribute to a more sustainable economy for future generations.
