Dairy product manufacturer. Formerly Daigomi Limited Partnership, established in 1916, established Lacto in 1917. Launched lactobacillus beverage "Calpis" in 1919. Changed name to Calpis Manufacturing in 1923. Dissolved under the Business Reconstruction and Adjustment Act in 1948, established as Calpis Food Industry. For a long time, Calpis was a single-item company, but after launching "Calpis Soda" in 1973, it began to manufacture and sell various beverages such as oolong tea and fruit drinks. As it diversified its beverage products, it also started to operate in food, alcohol, restaurants, and sports. In 1990, it expanded its beverage business by forming a business alliance with Ajinomoto. In 1997, it changed its name to the current one. In 2007, it became a wholly owned subsidiary of Ajinomoto. In 2012, it became a subsidiary of Asahi Group Holdings (→Asahi Breweries), which acquired shares from Ajinomoto. In 2013, the domestic beverage business and sales division were transferred to Asahi Soft Drinks. In 2016, the functional food and feed business was transferred to Asahi Calpis Wellness, and Calpis Foods Service, a wholly owned subsidiary of Calpis, changed its name to Calpis and took over the former Calpis' domestic beverage manufacturing business and dairy product business.
