As it expanded into many countries, Yakult established a unified system of common standards applied across all its factories, including in Vietnam. Products are manufactured through an automated, closed-loop process and controlled by the ISO 22000 food safety management system, ensuring consistent quality before market release.
Kenji Iwao, Production Block Director at Yakult Vietnam Factory, explained that to maintain stable product quality, the entire production process at the factory operates according to global standards. Control is carried out continuously at each stage, from raw material input to the final product, ensuring every step complies with established guidelines. "Each stage must be checked and approved by the responsible department; only when all standards are met is the product allowed to leave the factory," he affirmed.
