CNN's 'The 100 Club' showcases Suntory and discovers how it has stood the test of time
HONG KONG, Nov. 11, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

In this month's episode of 'The 100 Club', CNN anchor & correspondent Cyril 
Vanier[https://edition.cnn.com/profiles/cyril-vanier-profile] profiles five 
companies from around the world that have existed for over a century and learns 
the secrets behind their success. Vanier also discovers how these companies are 
adapting and striving to continue their legacies in the face of the Covid-19 
pandemic. 

Since its foundation in 1899, Suntory has grown into one of the largest 
distilled drinks manufacturers in the world. And in recent years it has 
expanded into soft-drinks, health supplements, restaurants and flowers.  

But with its commercial success has come a desire to protect the natural 
resources essential to creating the company's products. CNN learns how 
Suntory's Hakushu distillery in Japan's Southern Alps is an example of how the 
company harnesses the country's unique water and climate to produce its iconic 
whisky. 

Like many businesses have experienced, the Covid-19 pandemic has provided new 
challenges. CNN learns how Suntory plans to develop its e-commerce and home 
delivery services in order to reach their global customers.  

Also in this 30-minute program, CNN catches up with brewing company 
Anheuser-Busch, piano giant Steinway & Sons, the First Bank of Nigeria, and the 
San Diego Zoo as they reflect on their past, present and the path they are 
taking for the future.
