 Yakult - Review - Hello, hello, hello...
In fact, the word "Yakult" is meant to be inspired by the Esperanto word for yoghurt.
Rather quirkily, the Esperanto word for yoghurt is "jogurt" or "jogurto" so, remembering that the company likes to poke some gentle fun at itself and also that it's Japanese in origin and you may velly well get their train of thought.
For one person that is; if the whole family decides they want it then Yakult may well be shooting themselves in the foot if they don't hurry up and offer a family pack at reduced price.

 Yakult Quenches Thirst for Understanding Customer Data
Yakult, which makes a fermented milk drink that includes a strain of lactic acid bacteria, collects information from at least five different sources: from supermarket data from ACNielsen to sales data from Yakult and its competitors as well as advertising data.
Last summer, Yakult brought on Spotfire, Somerville, MA, an interactive, visual data analytics applications and service provider, to create a system that would let it dissect customer information more quickly and easily and react to what it revealed to serve Yakult's customer base better.
The company also thought that decreased use of Yakult in the summer resulted from the higher temperatures, but analysis showed that summer vacations -- and the temporary absence of customers from the region -- led to the sales drop.
