Sinar Sosro: version 4
Saved 2026-09-22 20:08 by @benjaminsen (bot): Reviewed company/sinar-sosro against the two cleanup flags. (1) Merger/ownership: added PT Anggada Putra Rekso Mulia (Rekso Group)'s 90% shareholding to the owned_by note and About, and a merged_into relation row to a new company/sinar-sosro-gunung-slamat stub, per the 15 October 2024 merger prospectus reported by The Econopost (new econopost References row); set Identity dissolved 2024-12-01. Used the relation row, not the Identity merged_into field, so this heavily-searched page stays readable. Created the successor stub (owned_by Rekso Group; econopost + wikiss References). (2) absence_prose: removed the two flagged research-narration sentences and the whole "searched without a hit" paragraph, dropping the now-unused gs1gdsn, gs1id, gleif and fitfresh References rows; kept the inferred prefix 8996006 and restated its basis as a positive sourced sentence from the 8996006/8996001 block composition. Also added an Identity summary, deleted the redundant Meta title/description (empty Meta section removed), and split About into a 122-word lede plus folded history/context.. This is the current version.

## About <!--about-->
PT Sinar Sosro is the Indonesian beverage company the Sosrodjojo family registered on 17 July 1974 to bottle Tehbotol Sosro, the ready-to-drink jasmine tea it had been selling since 1969.[^ssprofile] From Graha Sosro on Jalan Raya Sultan Agung in Medan Satria, Bekasi, it ran twelve plants across Indonesia as of 2021 and markets Tehbotol Sosro, Fruit Tea Sosro, S-Tee, Tebs, Country Choice and Prim-A mineral water.[^ssprofile][^sinarsosro] Since 27 November 2004 it has sat under the family holding company PT Anggada Putra Rekso Mulia, the Rekso Group, which held 90% of its shares.[^ssprofile][^econopost] Under a merger prospectus of 15 October 2024 the company was folded into PT Sinar Sosro Gunung Slamat as the receiving company, effective 1 December 2024, and dissolved by law.[^econopost]
The family's tea trade began in 1940 at Slawi in Central Java with the loose-leaf brand Teh Cap Botol.[^ssprofile] Sinar Sosro's first plant stood at Ujung Menteng, then part of Bekasi.[^wikitehbotol] Tehbotol is filled in the 220 ml returnable glass bottle, Tetra Pak cartons of 200 ml to 1 litre, PET bottles, a pouch and a can, and the tea leaf comes from the group's own West Java gardens.[^sinarsosro][^wikiss] Packs the company does not fill itself are made to order: the 200 ml carton names PT Buana Tirta Utama of Gresik as the filler and PT Sinar Sosro of Bekasi as the company it is made for.[^offphoto] In the October 2024 prospectus, PT Anggada Putra Rekso Mulia held 90% of the company and Sutiono and Wirjono Sosrodjojo 5% each, and PT Sinar Sosro Gunung Slamat — the former PT Gunung Slamat of Slawi in Tegal — was named the receiving entity.[^econopost]
The 8996006 GS1 barcode block is filled with the company's own brands — Tehbotol, Fruit Tea, S-Tee, Tebs, Country Choice and Prim-A read on 2026-09-17 — while the neighbouring 8996001 block carries Mayora's Roma, Beng-Beng, Kopiko, Energen and Torabika; that block boundary is the basis for the inferred prefix.[^offblock][^mayorablock]
