So who is the real figure behind Cimory's success? In CMRY's IPO prospectus, it is stated that the controlling and ultimate beneficiary of the company is conglomerate Bambang Sutantio.

Bambang started the premium milk business in 2004. When he was pioneering, Bambang worked with a businessman from the Netherlands, Theodorus Cornelis Johannes Swart.

Bambang holds 60 percent of Cimory's shares, while the partner holds 40 percent. But as time went on, Cimory finally walked without Cornelis.

After undergoing several changes, CMRY's shareholders before the IPO were dominated by Bambang (63 percent) and his family. Other name details are Farell Grandisuri Sutantio (9 percent), Axel Sutantio (9 percent), Wenzel Sutantio (9 percent), Tiffany Adikoesoemo (5 percent), PT Cimory Dairy Shop (3 percent), PT Cimory Hospitality Sejahtera (1 percent) and PT Chocomory Cokelat Persada (1 percent).

Bambang also runs other businesses outside the Cimory conglomerate. He is listed as owning PT Bavarin Culinary Haus (70 percent), PT Macrocita Ardanasejati (50 percent), PT Sanubari Mitra Nusantara (25 percent), PT Macrotama Binsastika (57 percent), to PT Tatanan Sumber Berkat.

Meanwhile, in CMRY, Bambang has placed his children in management. Farell Grandisuri, Axel Sutantio, and Wenzel Sutantio both as directors and commissioners. Only Alexander S. Rusli (independent commissioner) and Bharat Shah Joshi (Director of Finance & Investor Relations) are not related to the Bambang family.

Although known as yogurt products, Bambang's initial business was MP (Macro group) meat processing company, Kanzler sausage producer. It was only in 2004 that Cimory operated with the concept of accommodating farmers' milk.

Bambang continues to develop his products, including producing pasteurized liquid chicken eggs with the trademark Java Egg Specialties (JESS). Cimory, which was initially only part of the business grew into a major source of income. In the prospectus, CMRY has been confirmed as a holding despite coming later.

Bambang continues to push Cimory into new business order. In 2017, Cimory has started pioneering international business by expanding into China and Vietnam. Currently, the company has partnered with 6.000 cattle breeders throughout Java.

With Bambang and his children owning around 6.05 billion shares of CMRY, and assuming the upper limit of the IPO price is IDR 3.160, then Bambang's total wealth is estimated to reach a total of IDR 19.11 trillion from CMRY or about 1.33 billion US dollars.
