- Higashimaru Co., Ltd. is a Japan-based manufacturer and distributor specializing in formulated aquaculture feeds and consumer packaged food products. The company operates primarily through two business segments: Fisheries and Food. Its Fisheries segment develops, manufactures, and sells specialized compound feeds for marine and freshwater aquaculture, including formulated feeds for kuruma prawns, red sea bream, yellowtail, flounder, and eel; starter feeds and extruded pellets for fish farming; and customized nutritional solutions for commercial hatcheries and aquaculture operators. Its Food segment produces and markets processed food products domestically and internationally, primarily under the Higashi Foods brand as well as private-label arrangements, featuring dry noodles such as udon, soba, and somen; crispy fried noodles and sara udon; instant noodle products, including regional Kagoshima-style tonkotsu ramen; cup soups and instant soup mixes; liquid seasoning bases, noodle dipping sauces (mentsuyu), and curry roux; and tempura toppings (kakiage) and soybean flour. In addition to its domestic presence in Japan, the company exports aquaculture feeds and food items across Asia, North America, and other international markets. In recent operational developments, Higashimaru Co., Ltd. has undertaken strategic portfolio optimizations to streamline business assets and enhance operational profitability. In November 2025, the company completed the divestment of its entire equity stake in consolidated aquaculture subsidiary Yanbaru Ryukyu Suisan Co., Ltd. to Asahi Bussan Co., Ltd., following an earlier partial divestment of shares in consolidated subsidiary Marintec Co., Ltd. in April 2025. In 2026, the company expanded its consumer food portfolio with the rollout of new packaged noodle offerings, including the MyKuali Penang Asian noodle line featuring Prawn Noodle, Curry Mee, and White Curry varieties, expanded Kyushu Ramen tonkotsu lines, and Kagoshima Marubuta Ramen products. Founded in March 1947 and incorporated in October 1979, Higashimaru Co., Ltd. is headquartered in Hioki, Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan, and is listed on the Fukuoka Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol 2058.
