Discover where a brand or product originates
Kioxia is a major player in the global semiconductor industry, with a legacy rooted in the very invention of NAND flash memory by Toshiba in 1987. The Exceria High Endurance MicroSDXC line is engineered for high-intensity write cycles, making it a preferred choice for dashcams and surveillance systems.
Manufacturing predominantly occurs in Japan, particularly at the Yokkaichi and Iwate plants, which are among the most advanced flash memory fabrication facilities in the world. However, following acquisitions such as the SSD business from Lite-On, some assembly and specific components are also sourced or produced in Taiwan.
Ownership of the brand has undergone a significant transformation. Originally part of Toshiba, the memory division was spun off in 2018. As of 2026, Kioxia is primarily controlled by a consortium led by Bain Capital, while Toshiba retains a significant minority stake. This structure allows Kioxia to operate as an independent entity while maintaining its historical ties to Japanese innovation.
