The new Nikkei Business Online series will cover Zensho Holdings' growing presence in overseas markets and the management model that enables Chugai Pharmaceutical to maintain its position as Japan's leading company by market capitalization. The series is scheduled to begin in October.
Zensho Holdings, which operates Japanese food chains popular overseas, is performing well in global markets as companies from outside Japan expand their chains. It has secured the top share of the U.S. sushi takeout market and is accelerating its global expansion. A new series, “Zensho: Extraordinary Management,” will examine the company's strengths from October.
Meanwhile, Chugai Pharmaceutical continues to hold the top position in Japan by market capitalization, in a move that has put it ahead of its competitors. It has adopted a management model under which overseas expansion is entrusted to its parent company, Roche, while it focuses on drug discovery. Nikkei Business will explore the company's future development in “Chugai Pharmaceutical: Looking Beyond Its Peak.”
Nikkei Business Online has published a notice outlining a new series scheduled to be released from October 2026. The notice provides an overview of the series, including its launch timing and how to follow it, as well as information on benefits for members.
