# Career Opportunities at PT Yakult Indonesia Persada: Join the Probiotic Pioneer in 2024
Established in 1990, PT Yakult Indonesia Persada serves as the official licensee of Japan’s Yakult Honsha Co., Ltd. Operating from its state-of-the-art facility in the Indolakto Industrial Estate, Cicurug, Sukabumi, the company has solidified its reputation as a leading manufacturer of premium probiotic fermented milk drinks in Indonesia.
## The Legacy of Yakult
The core of Yakult’s success lies in the Lactobacillus casei Shirota strain, a unique bacterium discovered by the visionary microbiologist Dr. Minoru Shirota of Kyoto Imperial University. Following his breakthrough in 1921 and the successful cultivation of this strain by 1930, the drink was first introduced to the public in 1935. Today, the Yakult Central Institute—established in 1967—continues this legacy, employing over 300 experts to ensure every bottle of Yakult remains safe, acid-resistant, and effective at reaching the intestines alive, with each serving containing over 6.5 billion beneficial bacteria.
