OPERATIONS

TFDL’s core operation is the manufacture of rum under the Takamaka brand. Since 2018 it also produces vodka under a license from Diageo PLC, and imports Phoenix beer from Mauritius. The Company has gradually expanded its range of rum products from domestically focused formats to exports focused premium and aged formats, as the company stocks of locally distilled barrel aged rums have grown over the years and export markets have been opened up. A second line of business has been the establishment of a tourism experience at the La Plaine St Andre site involving rum tours, a retail experience and a restaurant serving lunches and dinners featuring creole dishes. The La Plaine visitor experience has developed into a “must” see stop for visitors to Mahe.
