Suntory Beverage & Food Co., Ltd. is a leading Japanese non-alcoholic beverage company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Suntory Holdings Limited. The company develops, produces and distributes a wide range of drinks, including bottled water, teas, coffees, carbonated soft drinks and health-oriented beverages. Key home-market brands include Suntory Tennensui natural mineral water, Iyemon green tea and BOSS canned coffee, while its international portfolio features Orangina, Lucozade and Ribena.
Founded as a distinct operating company in 2009 following the transfer of Suntory’s non-alcoholic beverage business, the company traces its roots back to 1899, when founder Shinjirō Torii launched the first Suntory whisky. Over the years, it has expanded through strategic alliances and acquisitions, notably integrating the Japanese bottling operations of PepsiCo and later merging with the UK-based Lucozade & Ribena brands in 2017. These moves have broadened its product lineup and global reach.
Suntory Beverage & Food serves markets across Japan, Asia, Europe, Oceania and North America, leveraging a network of manufacturing facilities and distribution partners to meet local consumer preferences. In its domestic market, the company is known for extensive vending-machine networks and convenience-store partnerships. Internationally, it maintains bottling joint ventures and sales offices that adapt global brands to regional tastes and regulations.
While specific details on current executive leadership are not readily disclosed, Suntory Beverage & Food operates under the broader strategic oversight of Suntory Holdings’ corporate management, which emphasizes sustainability, health and innovation. The company continues to invest in research and development aimed at packaging innovations, reduced sugar formulations and functional beverages that address evolving consumer lifestyles.
