Nissin York Pilkul 400 product developments

Overview

Nissin York Co., Ltd. has introduced new variations of its Pilkul 400 lactic acid bacteria drink in Japan. In late September 2026, the company launched ‘Amakunai Pilkul 400’ (Not Sweet Pilkul 400), a version containing 50% less sugar and calories than the standard product. This version utilizes the NY1301 strain and incorporates condensed milk to maintain flavor despite the reduced sweetness.

Following this, the company announced a limited-edition collaboration to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Pokemon. Starting in early November 2026, the product will feature 22 different package designs depicting 51 Pokemon from the Kanto region. This release is accompanied by a promotional giveaway campaign running from November 1 to December 12, offering themed merchandise to customers.
