OCHAKOVO

OCHAKOVO (МПБК Очаково, the Moscow Brewing and Soft Drinks Plant Ochakovo) is a Russian beverage producer that describes itself as making natural drinks according to three principles: naturalness, innovation and tradition. Its official website presents the company as a vertically integrated maker of beverages, controlling quality "from grain to shelf" and producing its own malt. The company states that it has built ten enterprises from scratch and that it works in Russia and is proud of it. OCHAKOVO's product range is broad and spans both alcoholic and non-alcoholic categories. According to its brand catalogue, the company produces kvass, beer, lemonades, carbonated soft drinks, spirits, alcoholic cocktails, iced tea, malt drinks, juices, drinking water, energy drinks, wine, strong alcohol and healthy-nutrition products. Among these, kvass is a flagship category: the company claims to produce the number-one kvass in Russia, marketed under the "Ochakovsky" brand and described as a true double-fermentation kvass. Beer is another core business, and the company highlights a full production chain of eleven steps from grain to bottling. OCHAKOVO also presents itself as an innovator in Russian beverage packaging. It says it was the first in the world to bottle beer in PET plastic, laying the foundation for Russian PET packaging, and the first in Russia to release beer in cans, a move it says other producers followed. The company has also revived Russian winemaking, having built a winery equipped with modern equipment; its website refers to its winery as "ЮВК" (YUVK). Beyond production, OCHAKOVO operates visitor tours at its Moscow production site, guiding guests from the brewhouse to the bottling line, and publishes a newsletter about drinks and traditions twice a month. Its portfolio includes brands such as "Ochakovsky" kvass, "Semeyny Sekret" (Family Secret) kvass, "Halzan" non-alcoholic beer and "Polisid" polysolodovy extract (a malt extract product, not a drink). The company positions itself around natural ingredients, in-house malting and a Russian production identity.
