Japan Kirin Holdings plans to acquire the remaining shares of Fancl for 1.4 billion US dollars.

Japanese beverage giant Kirin Holdings announced on Friday that it plans to fully acquire cosmetic and dietary supplement manufacturer Fancl Corp. Kirin currently has about 33% of the voting rights of Fancl. The company plans to acquire all remaining shares of Fancl through a tender offer for 220.72 billion yen (approximately $1.41 billion) to help strengthen its health food business. Due mainly to the decline in Japan's population, Kirin's main source of income, the beer market, has been sluggish. In contrast, the supplement and health food division is expected to grow. Kirin has been committed to expanding its health business.
