J. Front Retailing Co., Ltd. is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in Japan under 5010001111996, and its current status with National Tax Agency — Corporate Number Publication Site is active. The company was incorporated on 5 October 2015 and lists its registered address as Chuo Ward, Japan. 2 shareholders are on record for J. Front Retailing Co., Ltd., and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from National Tax Agency — Corporate Number Publication Site and was last updated on 30 September 2026.

Shareholders

Shareholders of J. Front Retailing Co., Ltd.

Two shareholders are currently on record for J. Front Retailing Co., Ltd., reflecting the kabunushi meibo (shareholder register) maintained under Articles 121-122 of the Companies Act rather than a public filing. The largest of these is VANGUARD TAX-MANAGED FUNDS-Vanguard Developed Markets Index Fund, holding 16.7% — the largest recorded stake — followed by SCHWAB STRATEGIC TRUST-Schwab International Equity ETF at 3.8%. Because every shareholder shown is a company rather than an individual, the ownership chain continues above this level, and no beneficial owner can be established from this filing alone.

Group Structure

Group structure of J. Front Retailing Co., Ltd.

J. Front Retailing Co., Ltd. has no recorded parent company — it sits at the top of its own group structure, with 12 subsidiaries recorded beneath it across 1 jurisdiction. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.

  • JFR INFORMATION CENTER CO., LTD. (Japan)
  • J.FRONT PRIME SPACE CO., LTD. (Japan)
  • SHOHI KAGAKU KENKYUSHO, K.K. (Japan)

Data availability

Those 12 subsidiaries span Japan jurisdiction, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. Three of the 12 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
