About Amayu
Amayu is AJE's Amazonian juice line and the clearest expression of what the company calls its Natural Revolution. It is the result of working directly with Amazonian communities who harvest super fruits while respecting nature's cycles and keeping the forest standing and its biodiversity intact, which makes the sourcing model part of the product rather than a marketing claim attached to it. AJE extended the line during 2024 with Amayu Energy, taking the Amazonian fruit base into the energy category.

About the owner: AJE
AJE is a privately held company headquartered in Lima, Peru, founded in 1988. Brandtree records 9 brands under its control.
AJE is a Peruvian multinational drinks maker built on the idea it calls democratising consumption: making soft drinks cheap enough for markets the international bottlers had priced out. Its history begins in 1988, when the Añaños Jeri family started producing drinks in Ayacucho, in the Peruvian Andes, giving rise to the Kola Real brand. It is still run by the family, several of whom sit on its board, and it now has commercial operations in Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Ecuador, Honduras, Venezuela, Colombia, Bolivia, Peru, Nigeria, Cameroon, Réunion, Madagascar, Spain, Egypt, India, Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia. Its portfolio spans more than eight categories — carbonated soft drinks, juices, waters, teas, isotonic and energy drinks — sold through its own plants, distribution centres and a franchise network, and none of it is bottled under licence from another brand owner.
