Data availability
Classification: Major shareholders only. Japanese annual securities reports disclose only the ten largest shareholders together with any treasury holding, not a complete shareholder register; holders below this threshold are not individually identified. DQ Windmolen B.V. is separately identified in the company’s large shareholding filings with Japan’s Financial Services Agency (EDINET) as an asset-management vehicle held for the company founder’s family, but the filings reviewed do not state the exact percentage of DQ Windmolen B.V. itself owned by any named individual, so no ultimate beneficial owner or calculated effective ownership percentage can be reliably reported here.

Recent structural changes
- In August 2025, Kanemi Foods Co., Ltd. reclassified from an equity-method affiliate to a consolidated subsidiary after a Kanemi treasury-share buyback raised Pan Pacific International Holdings Co., Ltd.’s voting-rights holding to 40.3 percent; the company states it exercises substantive control despite holding less than 50 percent (source: FY2025 annual securities report, filed 25 September 2025).
Data availability
Classification: Partial. The company’s annual securities report names its principal subsidiaries and equity-method affiliates with ownership percentages, but a further 59 consolidated subsidiaries are referenced only in aggregate and not individually named, so a complete subsidiary register with entity-level detail could not be independently verified. A separate footnote in the same filing names Pan Pacific Strategy Institute Pte. Ltd. and Pan Pacific Retail Management (Asia) Pte. Ltd. as “specified subsidiaries,” which corroborates part of the wider group structure shown elsewhere on this profile; the remaining entities referenced elsewhere on this profile were not individually confirmed against the primary filing reviewed for this update.
