Accelerating Corporate Development
for Marubeni

Since the establishment of the Next Generation Corporate Development Division in 2022, Marubeni has been actively building the foundations for new revenue streams for 2030 and beyond. We achieve this by investing in and supporting consumer-focused businesses with strong growth prospects.
Marubeni Consumer Platform Holdings serves as our dedicated investment arm, driving corporate development initiatives worldwide. With offices in Japan, the United States, and Singapore, we leverage Marubeni’s extensive global network and sector expertise to identify, invest in, and accelerate the growth of innovative consumer businesses.
