* Ditto with the Lotte Corporation, primarily known as a confectionery brand outside of Korea, but is South Korea's fifth largest ''chaebol'', engaged in industries as diverse as beverages, hotels, fast food, retail, financial services, industrial chemicals, electronics, IT, construction, publishing, and entertainment.
* The Walton Group in Bangladesh. While they primarily specialise in electronics, their product line covers things as diverse as desktops, laptops, RAM sticks, SD cards, home appliances, generators, elevators, batteries and even motorcycles. It wouldn't be that of a stretch for a Bangladeshi family's home to be decked out entirely with Walton-brand appliances, with one or more family members owning a Walton laptop and/or cellphone, and riding a Walton motorbike whilst they're at it, money permitting.
* Fujifilm is primarily an imaging company, but they have also dabbled into fields such as photochemicals, biotech and even [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|cosmetics]]. It is through this diversification that kept Fujifilm afloat despite the world moving on from traditional film to digital media. Not to mention that they have also developed favipiravir, one of the proposed treatments for [[COVID-19 Pandemicpandemic|COVID-19]] which is sold under the trade name Avigan.
* At some point [[Nokia]] was this, where they operated in various industries since its foundation, having first established as a pulp mill and later sold products like tyres and cabling, gas masks, footwear, televisions and chemicals. Eventually, they just settled with telecommunications especially cellphones, and later divested its cellphone business to Microsoft, who would then later throw in the towel in favour of HMD Global who now produces Nokia phones under license.
