ORONAMIN C DRINK (120ml)
ORONAMIN C was first launched in Japan in 1965 as a carbonated nutritional drink that anyone, from children to adults, could enjoy. It was subsequently launched in several countries in the Middle East in 1985 and has since become a popular nutritional drink for the whole family in the region. Since launching in Egypt in 2024, ORONAMIN C has seen steady growth, reflecting an increasing focus on health and wellness. To meet rising local health needs, establish a stable supply through local production, and contribute to the community through job creation, Otsuka has established the Otsuka Robeki Factory.
As an open factory, the Otsuka Robeki Factory will feature a visitor walkway that allows guests to learn about the manufacturing process and quality control systems, along with spaces designed to make learning about vitamins and other nutrients engaging. Through these initiatives, the facility aims to deepen understanding and trust in ORONAMIN C while contributing to greater health awareness among local residents.
The Otsuka Robeki Factory will also reduce its environmental impact by incorporating a high‑efficiency water treatment system and a steam condensate recovery system to minimize water usage. Looking ahead, the factory plans to advance efforts to reduce CO₂ emissions through the installation of solar power systems and other renewable energy initiatives.
