Patrick Ricard (entrepreneur)
Patrick Ricard (12 May 1945 – 17 August 2012) was a French entrepreneur and chairman and CEO of the liquor and wine group Pernod Ricard.
After studying business in France, Germany and the United States, Patrick Ricard joined the Ricard company, founded by his father Paul Ricard in 1932.
