About Yukery
Yukery is Empresas Polar's fruit juice brand, described on its own product page as offering higher pulp content, more naturalness and better quality than competing juices. It reached Polar with the 2001 Mavesa acquisition and has since been extended with no-added-sugar orange and apple variants, part of what the company describes as evolving the brand toward a more balanced lifestyle.

About the owner: Empresas Polar
Empresas Polar is a privately held company headquartered in Caracas, Venezuela, founded in 1941. Brandtree records 17 brands under its control.
Empresas Polar is Venezuela's largest privately held company, founded in Caracas in 1941 around what became Polar Pilsen beer and grown since into the country's dominant food and beverage group. Its own history describes deliberate diversification along the corn value chain from Harina P.A.N. precooked flour, into rice, pasta, snacks, dairy, oils and packaging, and a major expansion in 2001 when it bought food conglomerate Mavesa and inherited that company's margarine, condiment, cold-cuts and home-care brands. It now also operates P.A.N. flour plants and joint ventures outside Venezuela, in Colombia, the United States, Mexico, Spain and elsewhere, describing itself as the first global mass-consumption brand to come out of Venezuela.
