Sannine is a natural mineral water named after Mount Sannine and produced by Compagnie des Sources du Liban. Its registered label calls it a zero nitrate natural mineral water from Mont Sannine at 1,510 metres, and the company runs a factory in Bkaatouta with offices in Zalka. Sannine is one of the older names on the Lebanese water shelf: it was already among the main licensed brands when Executive Magazine surveyed the bottled water sector in 2000. A 2017 Executive report named Interbrand, headed by chairman and CEO Alain Tabourian, as its owner and noted that the brand sells gallons for homes and offices as well as bottles. Sannine 500 ml bottles also travel beyond Lebanon and are sold through Carrefour in Qatar.
