Sacks and Monster's co-CEO Hilton Schlosberg, are native South Africans. They bought the drink company Hansen Natural in 1992.
Hansen Natural launched the Monster energy drink brand in 2002, and the company changed its name to Monster Beverage in 2012.
In 2015, Coca-Cola bought a 16.7% stake in Monster Beverage for $2.15 billion in cash and opened its global distribution network to Monster.

Before buying what became Monster, Sacks was a senior partner at Werksmans, one of the largest law firms in South Africa.
Sacks studied law at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa; he later became a U.S. citizen and lives in southern California.
