LIFEDRINK COMPANY,INC.

Life Drink Company is a manufacturer and seller of soft drinks (beverages) and tea leaves, operating through a group of four companies including two consolidated subsidiaries (Nittoh Beverage Co., Ltd. and O Beverage Co., Ltd.) and one equity-method affiliate. The company's core competitive model is built on three pillars: small-variety, large-volume production focused on water, tea-based beverages, and carbonated drinks; full vertical integration from raw material procurement through bottling and sales; and a nationwide network of production facilities spanning from Iwate to Miyazaki prefectures. These capabilities enable the company to supply high-quality products at low prices and at scale, supporting strong partnerships with major retail formats including general merchandise stores, food supermarkets, discount stores, drug stores, and home centers, for both private-brand and company-branded products.
