Jose Cuervo’s owners have filed an IPO, according to reports
According to Bloomberg, Cuervo – the world’s largest Tequila producer – has filed for an initial public offering and may seek to raise as much as US$1 billion.
If true, this offering would be Mexico’s largest since February 2014. According to the filing, Cuervo did not disclose financial expectations for the sale.
