The Miss Universe brand is owned by JKN Global Group’s subsidiary entities, with ownership having shifted to include a Mexican partner for a portion of the business. As of early 2024, Raul Rocha Cantú, a Mexican businessman, held 50% of the Miss Universe organization through Legacy Holding Group USA Inc., which aligned with JKN Global Group's arrangement to co-own the brand. The overall copyright and franchise rights for Miss Universe have involved multiple corporate structures, including JKN Global Group PCL (Thai) and Legacy Holding Group USA (American arm), following the 2022 acquisition by Anne Jakrajutatip of Miss Universe and related franchises. For the latest specifics on current ownership percentages and any recent reorganizations, refer to the most recent official statements from Miss Universe and the owning entities, as ownership arrangements have shown notable changes in the past few years.
