Suntory Beverage & Food (Thailand) can trace its roots back to 1835, when Henderson William Brand, chef to the British royal family, concocted a special chicken soup to nourish the health of King George IV. That soup became the famous Essence of Chicken health supplement, which remains our signature product today.

Essence of Chicken has been manufactured in Thailand since 1974, when the first factory opened in Nonthaburi Province. In 1990, BRAND’S became part of the Suntory Group, which invested heavily in manufacturing technology and brought its own 100-year history of innovating new beverage, food and health products, and bringing them successfully to market.

Thailand is now the regional production center for not only Essence of Chicken, but also other health products in the BRAND’S Suntory portfolio, including Bird’s Nest and Veta/InnerShine. Currently, 350 million bottles are produced annually for export to 19 countries. Our Bangkok headquarters and three modern factories in Chonburi Province employ a total of 1,500 people locally.

Our contribution does not stop there, however. In line with Suntory’s “Growing for Good” vision, we strive to make a positive impact on all the communities we serve. The foremost example of this is BRAND’S Summer Camp, an educational programme that, since its founding in 1990, has helped to prepare more than one million Thai students for the rigorous national university admissions test.

Suntory Beverage & Food (Thailand) is a success story founded on decades of commitment to research and development, using advanced technologies to produce health food supplements that enable millions of people across the world to live better lives. Nothing could better exemplify “Yatte Minahare,”* the founding spirit of Suntory, which calls for bold ambition and the relentless pursuit of big goals.
