Kirin Beverage Company, Limited (Kirin Beverage) has said it would revise the prices for certain products delivered from Wednesday, October 1, 2025.

“In order to deliver safe and high quality products at reasonable prices, we have been working hard to improve productivity and reduce costs in all aspects of our business, and have been making efforts to improve our corporate management and rationalize our operations.

Under these circumstances, we have once again decided, out of necessity, to implement price revisions for some of our products,” the company said.

Kirin Beverage also added it will continue its efforts to improve management efficiency through continuous corporate efforts to deliver safe, high-quality products that will delight consumers.
