‘COZA SLEEP’, Romansive’s flagship product exhibited at this exhibition, is a sleep drink that promotes effective sleep using natural ingredients without containing melatonin.

Additionally, this product contains sleep-promoting ingredients such as jujube seeds, hops, theanine, and tryptophan, which stimulate the body to produce melatonin in a natural way to support healthy sleep.
COZA SLEEP has been registered as a health supplement (FDA) in the U.S. market and is also available on Amazon. This product holds FSSC22000, ISO 14001, ISO 22000, and HACCP certification, and its strength lies in the fact that it meets high standards in terms of quality and safety.
Romansive has released ‘COZA SLEEP’ through the crowdfunding platform Wadiz. It raised more than 100 million won through crowdfunding and achieved a whopping 20,151% of its goal, which was known as the No. 1 achievement in the food sector at the time. In addition, it is also available as a hotel amenity, providing customers with more convenient and diverse accessibility. COZA SLEEP has achieved success, with a total of 400,000 bottles sold so far and annual sales of over 1 billion (USD 770,000).
