Whyte and Mackay

Whyte and Mackay is a Scottish company producing alcoholic beverages. It was founded in 1844 and is based in Glasgow. Since 31 October 2014, Whyte and Mackay has been owned by Philippines-based Emperador Inc. (a subsidiary of the Alliance Global Group holding company), after being sold by the India-based United Spirits Ltd for £430m.〔http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-business-27340535〕
Whyte & Mackay's self-branded whisky holds about 3 per cent of the UK whisky market.
==History==
Charles Mackay and James Whyte started a company as whisky merchants and bonded warehousemen in Glasgow in 1882. W&M Special was their first blended whisky and it was successful in the United Kingdom and other English speaking countries around the world. After World War II they focused on the home market and now sell more than 1 million cases a year.
The brand was purchased by Hugh Fraser's SUITS group in 1971. SUITS was acquired by Lonrho in 1981 and subsequently Whyte & Mackay was sold to Brent Walker in 1988 and then to American Brands in 1990, which was renamed as Fortune Brands in 1997. In 2001 Fortune Brands sold Whyte & Mackay to management for £208 million.〔 United Breweries purchased the brand in May 2007 for £595 million in cash.〔
In August 2013, key members of United Spirits Limited (USL), the subsidiary of United Breweries that owned Whyte & Mackay, resigned from positions at Whyte and Mackay in the wake of the purchase of a controlling share of USL by Diageo, including USL CEO Vijay Mallya, White & Mackay CEO John Beard, and director Ayani Nedungadi.〔Millar, R., (Mallya Quits Whyte & Mackay Board ), ''The Drinks Business'', 12 August 2013.〕〔〔 Regulators in the UK are investigating whether to force United to divest itself of Whyte & Mackay due to anti-trust concerns over Diageo's dominant position in Scotch whisky production.〔(Daily Briefs for 12 August 2013 ), ''Shanken News Daily'', 12 August 2013.〕〔Vass, S., (Surprise as tycoon Mallya quits Whyte & Mackay board ), ''Herald Scotland'', 11 August 2013.〕 On 16 September 2013, Whyte & Mackay appointed Bryan Donaghey as its new CEO. Donaghey formerly served as managing director of Diageo for Scotland and prior to Diageo held posts within the Scotch Whisky Association.〔Hopkins, Amy, (Ex-Diageo Boss Appointed Whyte & Mackay CEO ), ''The Spirits Business'', 19 September 2013.〕
