History

Monster Beverage Corporation, originally known as Hansen Natural Corporation, has been in business since 1935. The company was founded by Hubert Hansen, a food scientist from Southern California who developed his own line of juice drinks. In the late 1990s, the company started to diversify, introducing energy drinks such as Java Monster and Monster Energy, which quickly rose in popularity. Throughout the 2000s, the brand released several other energy drinks, such as Ultra Red and Ultra Blue, as well as Relentless, a high-caffeine, zero-sugar drink. In 2007, the company was rebranded as Monster Beverage Corporation and officially changed its name to Monster Beverage Corporation in 2012. Monster has since become a leader in the energy drink industry and has grown to become one of the top beverage companies in the United States. Today, Monster Beverage Corporation produces more than 30 energy drinks, juices, and waters and owns more than 50 subsidiaries. In addition, the company distributes and sells products through retail outlets and through its website.
