It was popular among Thai truck drivers and labourers. While working for German manufacturer Blendax (later acquired by Procter & Gamble) in 1982, Dietrich Mateschitz travelled to Thailand and met Chaleo, owner of T.C. Pharmaceutical. During his visit, Mateschitz discovered that Krating Daeng helped cure his jet lag.{{Cite news |url=http://www.economist.com/people/displayStory.cfm?story_id=1120373 |title=Face value | Selling energy |publisher=Economist.com |date=9 May 2002 |access-date=22 June 2009 |archive-date=3 June 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080603102117/http://www.economist.com/people/displayStory.cfm?story_id=1120373 |url-status=live }} In 1984, Mateschitz co-founded Red Bull GmbH with Yoovidhya and turned it into an international brand. Each partner invested US$500,000 of savings to fund the company. Yoovidhya and Mateschitz each held a 49 percent share of the new company. They gave the remaining two percent to Yoovidhya's son, Chalerm, but it was agreed that Mateschitz would run the company.{{cite web|url=https://www.forbes.com/global/2005/0328/028_print.html|title=The Soda With Buzz|date=28 March 2005|author=Kerry A.

The French food safety agency was concerned about taurine; a Red Bull drink that did not contain taurine was introduced. The French refusal of market approval was challenged by the European Commission, and partially upheld by the European Court of Justice in 2004. The French food safety agency relented in 2008, because it was unable to prove a definite health risk, taurine-related or not.{{Cite news|title=France ends 12-year ban on energy drink Red Bull|location=Paris|work=Reuters|date=15 July 2008|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSL1576964720080715|access-date=22 November 2010|archive-date=10 May 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100510044932/http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSL1576964720080715|url-status=live}}
