The Lucas Bols Company has announced that Frank Cocx, current chief financial officer, will take over as chief executive of the company.

Nolet Group has agreed to acquire Lucas Bols for around €270m with all operations to remain in Amsterdam.

Lucas Bols has announced a return of revenues to pre-Covid times for the first half of the 2021/22 financial year.

Lucas Bols has entered a joint venture with Edrington under the name Maxxium BeLux for distribution in Belgium and Luxembourg.

Lucas Bols has reported an estimated 32% year-on-year decline in revenue for the 2020/21 financial year after widespread on-trade closures and travel restrictions due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

As the name suggests, we’ve used hazel wood as the hero of this edition alongside other familiar, native broadleaf trees, including silver birch and oak from our own forest.
