WCRC Researched Brand · World's Most Powerful Brands 2026 · Second Global Mega Edition
Mitsubishi Group
Mitsubishi is one of Japan's best-known group names, shared by a family of independent listed companies with no common parent, including Mitsubishi Corporation, MUFG, Mitsubishi Electric and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. Because there is no consolidated group, there is no group revenue; each member publishes its own audited accounts, and Mitsubishi Corporation alone reported revenue of JPY18.92tn for the year to March 2026. The name is carried across trading, banking, electronics, heavy industry and engineering. In WCRC's screening on the six-dimension Research Matrix, its strongest results came in financial health, where member companies are financially strong, industry standing among peers, and media presence built on very high awareness of the group name.
