Mitsuya Foods officially changed its corporate name to "Asahi Beer Soft Drinks" in April 1987, and in November 1988, Asahi Beer Soft Drinks Manufacturing was established. The following two years, two manufacturing plants were opened: one in Kashiwa, Chiba Prefecture in January 1989, and one in Akashi, Hyōgo Prefecture in January 1990. In February 1990, the canned coffee brand "NOVA" was changed to "J.O.", and Hank Aaron began doing commercials. In September that same year, Asahi Beer Soft Drinks consolidated its western Japan, Tōkai, and Kyūshū subsidiaries into one company called Asahi Beer Soft Drinks.
