Dana, proizvodnja in prodaja pijač ('Dana, the manufacture and sale of drinks') is a major Slovenian manufacturer of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.[1][2] It is located in the village of Mirna in southeastern Slovenia.[3]

The company was established as a work organization in 1952.[4] The brand Dana was registered in 1955.[2] At first, the company produced only alcoholic beverages. After 1970, the program was expanded with the non-alcohol beverages. Since 2005, Dana has made the majority of profit with its high-quality natural mineral water Dana.[4] In July 2012, the company was transformed from a joint-stock company to a limited liability company. It changed its name from Dana, tovarna rastlinskih specialitet in destilacija, d.d. (English: Dana, the plant specialties factory and distillation) to Dana, proizvodnja in prodaja pijač, d.o.o. (English: Dana, the manufacture and sale of drinks).[citation needed]

In 2000, Dana was ISO 9001 certified. In 2009, it obtained the International Food Standard (IFS) certificate.[3]
