Raak Kindercola

Raak Kindercola is a specialized caffeine-free soft drink designed specifically for children. It was first introduced by the Dutch brand Raak, which has been a staple in the Netherlands since it began producing lemonades and soft drinks in 1957. The product is marketed as a healthier alternative to traditional colas, containing no caffeine, phosphoric acid, artificial colors, or preservatives, and featuring a reduced sugar content supplemented with natural sweeteners like stevia.

Manufacturing takes place in the Netherlands, specifically at the production facilities of its parent company in Utrecht and Goor. The brand has evolved from a local favorite into a key part of the Benelux beverage market, maintaining its focus on family-friendly products and traditional Dutch flavors.

Since 1998, Raak has been owned and operated by United Soft Drinks B.V., an independent, family-owned Dutch beverage company. United Soft Drinks is the largest privately owned soft drinks producer in the Benelux region and manages several other prominent brands such as AA Drink and Bar-le-Duc. The company remains headquartered in the Netherlands, ensuring the brand's local heritage and production quality are preserved for the foreseeable future.
