10 Sep 2026 Southern Glazer’s Wine and Spirits, LLCSouthern Glazer’s: USD 12.5m over benefits to retailer employees USACommercial bribery €10.8m

The nationwide wine and spirits distributor headquartered in Florida entered into a non-prosecution agreement and pays USD 12.5 million. It admitted that executives and employees had for years provided employees of alcohol retailers, including grocery chains in California, with cash, prepaid gift cards, flights, golf trips, resort stays and luxury goods to influence the purchase and placement of its products, concealing this through third-party vendors and false invoices. The authority allegedly made the findings set out here; this account is not based on a final judgment.

What organisations can take from it

Benefits to customers' employees are commercial bribery – marketing budgets run through third-party vendors need document and recipient checks.
