Since our foundation, Research & Development has
underpinned our ability to create products that promote
good health. Life science serves as the foundation of Yakult’s
business. The passionate desire of our founder Dr. Shirota in
pursuing the potentials of lactic acid bacteria is being carried
on today in the form of Shirota-ism.
Half a century has passed since we embarked on our
overseas expansion, and today our network covers
40 countries and regions.
