Ajinomoto (2658) AGM 2025 Door Gift 📩摳ぼ箠

Eat Well, Live Well. 

Ajinomoto (Malaysia) Berhad is a leading food and seasoning manufacturer based in Malaysia. As one of the first Japanese companies established in the country, it has been a household name for decades. The company recently announced a strong performance for its first quarter of the 2026 financial year, reporting a net income of RM24.2 million, a significant increase of 28% from the previous year. This rise was attributed to a 5.5% increase in revenue

The company is responsible for a range of well known products that are staples in Malaysian kitchens. Its most famous product is the AJI NO MOTO 摳ぼ箠 Umami seasoning. Ajinomoto (MSG), has long faced the myth that it is harmful to health. In reality, decades of scientific research and reviews by global health authorities such as the U.S. FDA, the World Health Organization, and the European Food Safety Authority have confirmed that MSG is safe for consumption when used in normal amounts. The misconception largely came from anecdotal claims in the 1960s about “Chinese Restaurant Syndrome,” which were never backed by solid scientific evidence. Ajinomoto continues to emphasize food safety and transparency, showing that MSG is simply a flavor enhancer made from natural ingredients like sugarcane or corn, and poses no proven health risks.

Other popular brands include TUMIX chicken stock, the menu specific Seri Aji seasonings, and AJI SHIO flavored peppers. The company also offers a low calorie sweetener called Pal Sweet, as well as other blended seasonings like AJI•MIX and frozen foods such as "AJINOMOTO Gyoza."



The company's 64th Annual General Meeting was held on August 28, 2025, at the Grand Ballroom of Bangi Resort Hotel.  Attendees were given Ajinomoto product packs as door gifts.
