Kewpie Corporation is a registered legal entity registered in Japan under 6011001006277, 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 Shibuya Ward, Japan. 5 shareholders are on record for Kewpie Corporation, 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 25 September 2026.

Shareholders

Shareholders of Kewpie Corporation

Five shareholders are currently on record for Kewpie Corporation, 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 Fund-Vanguard Developed Markets Index Fund, holding 8.7% — the largest recorded stake — followed by DFA International Core Equity Portfolio at 3.4%; the remaining 3 shareholders shown hold smaller stakes. 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.

Data availability

The register reports 10 shareholders in total, though only the top 5 by holding are shown in this view.

Group Structure

Group structure of Kewpie Corporation

Kewpie Corporation has no recorded parent company — it sits at the top of its own group structure, with 33 subsidiaries recorded beneath it across 12 jurisdictions. 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.

  • GREEN MESSAGE CO., LTD. (Japan)
  • KEWPIE DIGITAL INNOVATION K.K. (Japan)
  • KEWPIE MALAYSIA SDN. BHD. (Malaysia)
  • DEFT CO., LTD. (Japan)

Data availability

Those 33 subsidiaries span Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Estonia, Poland, Netherlands, and 6 more jurisdictions, 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. Six of the 33 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
