Monster Beverage CorporationMNSTConsumer Staples

Develops and markets energy drinks led by Monster Energy, Reign and Bang Energy, alongside concentrate-based Strategic Brands and a smaller alcohol portfolio. Revenue comes mainly from packaged drinks sold through bottlers and distributors, with Coca-Cola-system bottlers covering the United States and nearly all international territories.

Develops and markets energy drinks across Monster Energy Drinks, led by Monster Energy, Reign and Bang Energy. Strategic Brands includes NOS, Full Throttle, Burn, Predator and Fury, while Alcohol Brands sells craft beer, flavored malt beverages and hard seltzer; American Fruits and Flavors supports a small Other segment selling flavor products to third parties.
