Nissin Foods Holdings Leverages Qlik to Transform Data Integration and Real-Time Decision Making
Company taps Qlik as "game changer" for real-time ERP data and analysis, improving visualizing issues, operations and decision-making TOKYO, June 23, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Qlik®, a global leader in data integration, data quality, analytics, and artificial intelligence, today announced that Nissin Foods Holdings, a leading global food industry company, has implemented Qlik as a core component of its newly developed data integration and analytics platform. This solution now enables the company to leverage real-time data from its enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, integrated with Snowflake, for smarter and faster decision-making. Nissin Foods Holdings is focused on building a data-driven management platform to improve operations across the company. Prior to Qlik's introduction, data from its SAP-based core system was fragmented across multiple platforms, making it difficult to establish a unified solution. Additionally, manual data updates once a day meant the company lacked real-time data, hampering decision-making and adding operational burdens. With the adoption of Qlik, Nissin Foods Group, a subsidiary of Nissin Foods Holdings, gained the ability to access the most up-to-date data, with real-time data integration directly linked to Snowflake. This eliminated the need for manual data downloads, vastly improving data utilization and speeding up decision-making processes. In the logistics and sales departments, AI-powered automation has made it possible to track critical data, such as shipments and sales, and alert staff of anomalies and other decision-critical information in real time. Qlik is expected to help Nissin Foods Group to operate more efficiently across its various business domains. Toshihiro Narita, Executive Officer and CIO (Group Information Officer) of Nissin Foods Holdings, said, "We are genuinely committed to building a data-driven culture without relying too much on the strength of our brand.

Noodle-maker Nissin plans big investments, eyes pickup in demand
Nissin Foods Holdings, one of the world's largest instant noodle makers, plans to invest "many hundreds of millions of dollars' in the next several years for expansion in Japan and elsewhere, according to its chief executive officer. Nissin Foods expects continued demand for cheap precooked noodles even as the industry works to shed its image of being an unhealthy staple, President and CEO Koki Ando said in an interview on the sidelines of the World Instant Noodles Association summit in Manila on Wednesday. "We are planning to increase our investments,' said Ando, who also heads the association. The Tokyo-based company expects to boost capital expenditure up until 2030, devoting "many hundreds of millions of dollars' in Japan and other countries, Ando added. Instant noodles, originally from Japan and now a global staple, are undergoing a change as producers create healthier variations of the meal. They aim to revive interest in the product after consumption dropped in 2023 for the first time in four years. That followed a 14% increase between 2019 and 2022. Global consumption of instant noodles dipped nearly 1% to 120.2 billion servings in 2023, based on the latest industry data. Last year's number "slightly exceeded' 2023, Ando said, adding that the industry group sees at least 120 billion servings this year. Demand grew during the COVID-19 pandemic with families holed up in homes. But consumption eased in 2023 as economies reopened and noodle prices rose in many countries, he said. China, Indonesia and India are the world's top instant noodle markets. Nissin Foods reduced salt in its Udon noodle by a third between 2005 to 2024, company data shows. It also launched products fortified with various nutrients, such as protein, vitamins and minerals.
