About Joie

Joie is a juice and vegetable drink range Yakult sells in Japan through the same door-to-door delivery network as its fermented milk products, using the distribution rather than retail shelves to reach households. That network, staffed largely by women delivering to regular customers, is the company's principal advantage in its home market.
