Yakult Australia

Yakult is proudly Australian made, from the finest ingredients. Whilst Yakult has enjoyed more than seven decades of successfully promoting probiotics overseas, it is a relatively new product to Australia.

Yakult Australia Pty. Ltd. commenced production on 22 January 1994. Australia was the first English speaking country chosen to launch Yakult due to its close proximity to Asia. Another reason was Australia’s increasing interest in maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

		Yakult has enjoyed phenomenal market penetration and success since it arrived on Australia’s supermarket shelves. Yakult was launched into the Australian market progressively, starting in Victoria. This step-by-step launch into each state over a period of six years reflects Yakult’s commitment to maintaining the quality of its service to all customers and its understanding of the need to support this unique product with a comprehensive education program.

Yakult Australia currently employs over 100 people in Australia and New Zealand. Our staff includes production workers, teachers, sales consultants, dietitians, nutritionists, administrative staff, managers and human resource personnel.
