Recently Ajinomoto decided to underwrite new stocks issued -- based on 3rd party allocation -- by Shimadaya Honten (Headquarters: Shibuya-Ku, Tokyo), which is a major noodle manufacturer, and thereby make ((Ajinomoto's)) shareholdings more than 20%. The timing is undecided. On 1 November, Ajinomoto Dannon's Vice President ?Yokoe? will be detailed to Shimadaya Honten as Vice President.

Ajinomoto is furthering development in the area of chilled food, such as tofu, by means of its subsidiary Ajinomoto Dannon. ((Ajinomoto)) decided to strengthen its sales and distribution of chilled foods by tying up with Shimadaya Honten, which has abundant experience and results in distribution of chilled foods, such as raw noodles.
