KDDI Open Innovation Fund III Makes Additional Investment in Antway, Operator of Home-Cooked Meal Delivery Service "Tsukurioki.jp"

November 27, 2025

KDDI CORPORATION

KDDI made an additional investment in Antway Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Kei Maejima; hereinafter "Antway"), the provider of the home-cooked meal delivery service "Tsukurioki.jp," through KDDI Open Innovation Fund III (operated by Global Brain Corporation; hereinafter "KOIF III"), which aims to incubate new business co-creations with promising venture startups.

Antway is the company that operates the "Tsukurioki.jp" service, which delivers handmade prepared under the supervision of registered dietitians in the company's dedicated kitchen to subscribers' homes once a week. By providing delicious and safe prepared meals through "Tsukurioki.jp," the service helps working couples address cooking-related concerns. It is expected to create more time for them to enjoy their hobbies, work, and spending time with their family.

Through this investment, KDDI will support Antway with customer introductions using the points of contact with its own customers.

As a "company that inspires passionate challenges," KDDI will continue to promote business co-creation through investment in promising startup companies, and create new business models together with customers and partners.
