[Asia Economy Reporter Yoo Hyun-seok] Gyeongnam Pharmaceutical announced on the 27th that its new product ‘Linker Stick’ surpassed a cumulative sales volume of 1.7 million packets within two months of its launch.


Launched in May, ‘Linker Stick’ is a product based on consumer demand for refreshing beverages during the summer and increased interest in health. Each packet contains 40 kcal and includes five types of vitamins and three essential amino acids in a drinkable glucose form.


‘Linker Stick’ features an optimal blend of glucose and sodium for rapid hydration, a refreshing lemon flavor, and a stick-type powder form that can be conveniently carried and mixed with water anytime, anywhere. The recommended intake is once daily, mixing one packet with 500mL of water.


Gyeongnam Pharmaceutical is accelerating the expansion of the product lineup aiming to broaden the market for ‘Linker Stick,’ which has recorded high sales in a short period. This includes ‘Linker Energy,’ developed and launched as a beverage product rather than powder, and recently introduced ‘Linker Stick MAX.’


‘Linker Stick MAX’ contains a refreshing lime flavor, seven types of vitamins, two minerals, and ten essential amino acids. It is individually packaged in powder form for easy consumption and is readily available for purchase at pharmacies.


A Gyeongnam Pharmaceutical official stated, “Our goal is to grow ‘Linker Stick’ as another power brand of Gyeongnam Pharmaceutical alongside the vitamin C brand ‘Lemona,’” adding, “We will increase market share through a diverse product lineup that meets consumer needs.”



Meanwhile, to commemorate the sale of 1.7 million packets of Linker Stick, Gyeongnam Pharmaceutical is offering a gift package that includes 3 boxes of Linker Stick, a dedicated bottle, and a shopping bag as an additional set for sale.
