What Royal Plus does
Royal Plus Public Company Limited is a Thai beverage manufacturer founded in 1998 and headquartered in Bangkok, with its main production facility in Samut Songkhram and a distribution warehouse in Samut Sakhon. The company operates under three business models — OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer), ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) and OBM (Original Brand Manufacturer) — meaning it manufactures beverages under clients' brands, develops proprietary recipes for partners, and sells under its own brands, including COCO ROYAL (coconut water and coconut milk), MABU (fruit juices with nata de coco), Nita (basil seed beverages) and Cocogurt (cultured coconut drink). Its core technology centers on a proprietary coconut processing method that preserves authentic flavor and nutritional content, applied across a portfolio of more than 25 coconut, fruit juice, basil-seed, chia-seed and functional variants.
Royal Plus generates revenue through four streams: OEM contract manufacturing, ODM recipe development services, OBM sale of its own brands, and international export sales. Pricing is quote-based for B2B OEM/ODM contracts and unit-priced for consumer retail (example promotions: Coco Royal 45 THB combo at Jiffy, 40 THB for 2 bottles at CJ More). Distribution is dual-track: domestically through major Thai modern-trade and convenience chains (Foodland, CJ More, Jiffy, Lawson108) plus Shopee e-commerce, and internationally through direct export to distributors and buyers in over 116 countries, supported by an enterprise field-sales motion built around major Asian and Middle East food trade fairs.
The company is publicly listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand under the ticker PLUS since May 20, 2022, with leadership still founder-led — Mr. Plaeng Saeng Be serves as Managing Director/CEO and Mr. Kitti Wachirajirakar as Deputy Managing Director in charge of operations, supply chain and sustainability. Royal Plus targets a 5-year CAGR exceeding 25% as part of its 2026 "Year of Accelerated Growth" strategy and differentiates on the breadth of its international certifications (ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, GMP, HACCP, FDA, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 14064-1, plus AEO and CFO), its multi-brand coconut portfolio, and recent entry into adjacent functional categories such as beauty and tea-based beverages.
