Stardust Promotion itself represents more than 1,000 actors, actresses, models, and artists, with offices in Tokyo, Osaka, Sendai, Nagoya, Fukuoka, and Okinawa. Its slogan, "Creative Management," reflects an approach that goes beyond simply booking talent: the group also plans and produces television, film, radio, and other entertainment content. The International Business Division casts Stardust talents in overseas films and TV dramas, negotiates remakes of Japanese films, and produces live performances for its artists abroad. The wider Stardust Group includes several specialized subsidiaries. SDR, Inc.

(Stardust Pictures) plans, produces, distributes, and publicizes films and TV series, and also publishes talent photo books and related titles.

SDM Co., Ltd. manages specialists in culture, beauty, cooking, art, and sports, while SDI Co., Ltd. manufactures and sells cosmetics. STARDUST HD. sits at the top of this structure as the group's holding company. The group remains privately held and is led by chairman and president Yoshiro Hosono, with Yoshiji Fujishita as vice president. With its "Creative Management" philosophy and a stated global vision, the Stardust Group continues to expand its activities in the worldwide entertainment business.

The Stardust Group's history begins with the founding of Stardust Promotion in 1979. Established in Tokyo with capital of 10 million yen, the company built its business around managing actors, singers, and other performers and promoting them to television broadcasters and other media. Its early identity was that of a talent agency, but over time it expanded into content production and related businesses. As the Japanese entertainment industry grew through the 1980s and 1990s, Stardust Promotion developed a roster that would make it one of the country's largest agencies. The group's official materials state that it currently represents over 1,000 actors, actresses, and artists. To serve this roster, it established a network of offices beyond Tokyo, including Osaka, Sendai, Nagoya, Fukuoka, and Okinawa. The group's expansion into adjacent businesses produced a family of subsidiaries. SDR, Inc. (Stardust Records) was created as a comprehensive entertainment label focused on music, combining management, A&R, sales and promotion, live agency, new media marketing, and music publishing, with an eye toward the global market and world tours. SDP Inc. (Stardust Pictures) took on planning, production, distribution, and publicity for films and TV series, as well as publishing talent photo books and related titles, and managing directors, scriptwriters, and animators. WONDER STYLE handles artist merchandise, e-commerce, costume design, and event production. SDM Co., Ltd. manages specialist talents in fields such as culture, beauty, cooking, art, and sports, while SDI Co., Ltd. manufactures and sells cosmetics. To coordinate this growing portfolio, the group established a holding company structure. STARDUST HD. serves as the holding company of Stardust Promotion, sitting above the operating companies. The group describes its guiding philosophy as "Creative Management" and states a global vision, with an International Business Division that casts its talents in overseas films and TV dramas, negotiates remakes of Japanese films, and produces live performances abroad. Leadership has remained stable: Yoshiro Hosono serves as chairman and president, with Yoshiji Fujishita as vice president. The group remains privately held. Its official communications highlight a continuing push into worldwide entertainment, positioning the Stardust Group as a challenger in the international market while remaining rooted in Japanese talent management.
