Get treated to a bottle of Yakult before you embark on the factory tour.
Production Process
At the start of the tour, patrons are introduced to the history of Yakult and the benefits of probiotics in our digestive system.
Afterwards, witness the production process of the cultured drink, where you can also see how checks are conducted to ensure its quality.
To prevent contamination and accidents on the factory floor, visitors are only able to view the process through a glass panel.
Here's a peek from when we visited:
Before you leave the factory, grab a photo with the mascot, aptly named the Yakult Man.
