Actually, I recently read that Bacardi has had a plant in Puerto Rico since the 1930s. It was built so that they wouldn't have to pay tariffs following the end of Prohibition. The company only moved its headquarters after the Cuban revolution.

I would surmise that that is correct as I do not know enough of the history behind Bacardi. I also should have realized that Bacardi would have "left" Cuba rather than "moved" to PR. :)
