	Seagram History - Seagram & Bronfman
		Seagram saw potential in the mill and purchased Hespeler's share of the company in 1869.
		Seagram was also an avid horse breeder and horse racing enthusiast, establishing the Seagram stables in 1888.
		Bronfman's keen market sense led to the worldwide success of what became The Seagram Company Ltd. For example, in 1933 when prohibition ended in the United States, his company was prepared with huge amounts of aged and carefully blended whiskies, as well as its own U.S. distribution network.
