The predecessor of Sanyuan was the Beijing Milk Terminal, which was established in 1956, and was gradually formed by the merger of the original Beijing farms, and has been listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange in 2003. Sanyuan Group is a wholly state-owned enterprise under the Beijing Municipal Government, in addition to the dairy business, it also owns 50% of McDonald's Beijing and 25% of McDonald's Guangzhou, and McDonald's milk, cheese and other products are supplied by Sanyuan. Sanyuan has provided dairy products for the previous "National People's Congress", "CPPCC" and other major political, economic and cultural large-scale activities of the central government and Beijing, and has been designated as the special milk for banquets in the "Great Hall of the People".
 
Sanyuan's dairy business in Beijing and North China has the advantage of being close to the local area, easy to buy and affordable, but in other regions, it can only be purchased through online shopping. The quality of low-temperature dairy products such as yogurt, pasteurized fresh milk, etc., mainly depends on the quality of raw materials, production management and cold chain transportation.
 
Sanyuan is a veteran dairy company, and its low-temperature yogurt is also very diverse, which is not inferior to the other two dairy giants Yili and Mengniu. Sanyuan low-temperature yogurt can be mainly divided into probiotic multi-series and Heng'antang 166, local characteristics of old Beijing yogurt and Poria cocos yogurt, snacks of light energy yogurt and large fruit chunk series.
 
Like most yogurt brands, Sanyuan's yogurts are mostly flavored fermented milk, and they are not low in added sugar. The carbohydrate content is 10.8g/100g, and after excluding the natural lactose, the added sugar is about 5.8g, which is slightly better than other series of products.
 
Another non-added sugar carbohydrate of the probiotic multi-series is only 4g/100g, protein is 3.2g/100g, and sucralose is added to adjust the sourness, and inulin is added to increase dietary fiber. Although the non-added sugar model is relatively healthy, the taste acceptance is still not as good as that of other yellow peach and strawberry fruits, which is also reflected in the sales volume, which has the lowest sales volume in the probiotic multi-series. The probiotic multi-series is very cost-effective, and the price of 125g*8 is about 14 yuan.
 
"Old yogurt" is a kind of plastic bowl yogurt promoted by Qinghai Xiaoxi Niu in 2008, with novel packaging form and strong taste, and other dairy companies have also launched such imitation blue and white porcelain bowl yogurt. Sanyuan old Beijing yogurt also belongs to this type, 180g small bowl price of 3.8 yuan, to be eaten with a spoon, is one of the favorite snacks of Beijing tourists. Lao Beijing is essentially a coagulated yogurt with thickeners such as gelatin and pectin, which is very similar in texture to Greek yogurt, but not so high in protein and fat.
 
In addition to the basic series of products mentioned above, the packaging of Ternary Light Energy Yogurt and Large Fruit Chunks is more exquisite and novel, rich in flavor, but the sugar content is much higher, the price is also higher, and the positioning is closer to snacks.
 
The yogurt series is available in 250g small bottles and 450g large bottles, and is positioned as a probiotic yoghurt with 1 billion live bacteria. Yogurt 250g is priced at 7.8 yuan, which is much more expensive than the ternary-based probiotic yogurt, with the advantage of higher protein content and lower fat, but the added sugar is higher. There is no evaluation method for the probiotic effect of yogurt in the national standard, and it is impossible to calculate how many specific types of probiotics consumers buy in their hands, and whether it can promote intestinal health is unpredictable, and it is more of a propaganda slogan.
