Company Overview

Founded in 1909 by Professor Kikunae Ikeda following his discovery of the umami taste, Ajinomoto Co., Inc. has grown into a leading Japanese food and chemical corporation.

Ajinomoto’s Food Products segment includes retail and foodservice offerings such as seasoning blends, soup bases, frozen foods, processed meats, and ready-to-eat meals. Through continuous innovation, the company has introduced plant-based alternatives and reduced-sodium formulations to address evolving consumer preferences. Its AminoScience segment produces amino acids for pharmaceuticals, nutritional supplements, sports nutrition, and animal nutrition, as well as specialty chemicals used in cosmetics and industrial applications.

With operations spanning Asia, the Americas, Europe and Africa, Ajinomoto maintains manufacturing sites, sales subsidiaries and R&D centers in more than 30 countries. Key markets include Japan, China, the United States, Brazil and Thailand, where the company collaborates with local partners to tailor products to regional tastes and regulatory standards. Strategic alliances and joint ventures further support its global distribution network and research capabilities.

Headquartered in Tokyo, Ajinomoto is led by President & CEO Masatoshi Ito and a board of directors committed to sustainable growth.

AJINY Stock News Headlines

President Donald Trump made headlines last month with a staggering claim. He stated that since taking office, more than $12 trillion in private investments into America have been “practically committed” on his watch. "Nobody's ever seen numbers like we have," he said, crediting his agenda of tariffs, tax cuts, and deregulation with making the difference. If true, the figure would indeed be astonishing – potentially tripling the roughly $4 trillion in gross private investment the US reported all of last year.
