Announcement of price revision for some large PET bottle products

Asahi Group Holdings, Ltd.

Asahi Soft Drinks Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Tokyo; President and Representative Director, Katsuhiko Kishigami) will revise the shipping prices and the manufacturer's suggested retail prices of some large PET bottle products effective May 1, 2019.

We decided to revise the prices in response to the recent cost increases of distribution, fuel and raw materials. We have been working to increase profitability through such means as efficiency improvements in production, distribution, sales, administration and other sections. However it became difficult for us to absorb the cost increases in large PET bottle products. We have endeavored to streamline our activities and provided high added value products and services for new demand creations in the future.
