Through Lenox, Incorporated, Brown-Forman also manufactures and markets the china, crystal, collectibles, and giftware of Lenox; the contemporary tabletop and giftware designs of Dansk; the silver, crystal, china, and giftware of Gorham; the silver and pewter products of Kirk Stieff; and the luggage and leather goods of Hartmann. The company was founded in 1870 by George Garvin Brown, a young pharmaceuticals salesman in Louisville , Kentucky , who had the then-novel idea of selling top-grade whiskey in sealed glass bottles. Since then, it has grown into a company that in fiscal 2004 had sales of $2.5 billion, of which $1.9 billion was accounted for by sales of Wines and Spirits . EXTERNAL LINKS |
