The juice producers Merziger, Klindworth and Niehoffs Vaihinger belong to the company. In 2001 Karlsberg acquired controlling interest in the Mineralbrunnen Überkingen-Teinach company from Nestlé, including Afri-Cola and the mineral water brands Staatlich Fachingen and Hirschquelle out of the Black Forest. Alcohol-free drinks today make up more than 50% of the company's turnover (of 691 Million Euros in the fiscal year 2004/05).
