Yakult first joined the Tigers family as an Associate Partner in 2021, and since then have been fuelling the senior men's team squad with their iconic fermented milk drinks.

Recognising the role that nutrition plays in sport, Yakult understands how gut health supports overall health and wellbeing of players, both on and off the pitch.

The partnership with Leicester Tigers Rugby Club aligns with Yakult’s corporate philosophy to contribute to the health and happiness around the world. This philosophy is grounded in the passionate desire of our founder, the Japanese scientist Dr. Shirota, to deliver good health to as many people as possible. And after more than 85 years,  these values continue to shape the brand’s focus on promoting wellness through nutrition.

Speaking about the partnership, Yakult National Sales Manager UK & Ireland, Kevin Mansell, added: “At Yakult, we understand the role of nutrition in sport and wellbeing. We are pleased to renew our partnership with Leicester Tigers for a third successive season and continue to supply the team with their daily Yakult."
