Matt Avena Bio oat drink

Matt Avena Bio is an organic plant-based oat drink produced by the Italian company A&D S.p.A. Gruppo Alimentare e Dietetico. The product is specifically marketed as featuring 100% Italian oats, emphasizing its local supply chain and sustainable organic farming practices. The brand 'Matt' has long been established in the Italian market as a specialist in wellness, supplements, and health foods.

Historically, the brand was developed within A&D S.p.A., which was founded in 1995. In 2020, the French international group Nutrition & Santé, a leader in the dietetic and organic food sector across Europe, acquired A&D S.p.A. Nutrition & Santé is itself a subsidiary of the Japanese pharmaceutical giant Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. Consequently, while the production remains rooted in Italy to maintain the integrity of its 'Made in Italy' status and local sourcing, the ultimate corporate ownership lies with Otsuka Pharmaceutical, headquartered in Tokyo, Japan.
