The Nissin Foods Group was founded in 1958, when its founder, Momofuku Ando, invented the world’s first instant noodles, Chicken Ramen. Guided by the belief that “peace in society comes only when people are well fed,” the Group operates under the vision of “EARTH FOOD CREATOR,” contributing to society and the planet through food.

The core of its business is instant noodles, with strong brand power both in Japan and overseas, led by Cup Noodles. The Group has also expanded into frozen and chilled foods, confectionery, and beverages, while strengthening overseas operations as its next growth driver.

In addition, under “EARTH FOOD CHALLENGE 2030,” the Group is promoting initiatives such as CO₂ reduction and the adoption of environmentally friendly packaging. By emphasizing food safety, health-conscious products, and human resource development, it aims for sustainable growth.
