From 1974 until 1983, Puteri Indonesia pageant who was owned by Andy Nurhayati Beauty institute Jakarta directorship was the national franchise holder of Indonesia to Miss Universe, wherein it was responsible for selecting the Indonesian women who would represent the Indonesia and compete at the annual Miss Universe pageant.[1] Under the institute, they have sent seven Indonesian representatives to the Miss Universe pageant in 1974–1977, 1980, and 1982–1983.[2]

Before Puteri Indonesia under PT Mustika Ratu Tbk., the Indonesia's representations were crowned by national pageants called Ratu Indonesia, Miss Indonesia, and Miss Jawa. Andy Nurhayati who owned Andi Beauty Institute Jakarta was the key person who took the franchise for Miss Universe in Indonesia. Began 1980s, the selection held in closed selection by her, since there was banning system from the government about beauty pageants.

Puteri Indonesia organization was still sending Indonesia's representative for Miss Universe in 1995 and 1996, however from 1997 until 2004, its winners were forced to withdraw from competing at the Miss Universe pageant by the decision of the former First Lady, Mrs. Tien Suharto.[3] [4] Puteri Indonesia's winners were again sent to the Miss Universe after receiving support and permission from Megawati Soekarnoputri, the first-ever female president of Indonesia.[5] [6] [7] The pageant has been held consecutively every year, with the winner and the runner-ups sent to participate in international beauty pageants, from Artika Sari Devi who represented Indonesia at the Miss Universe 2005 in Thailand until Laksmi Shari De-Neefe Suardana who represented the country in 2022. Under Puteri Indonesia organization, 19 representatives have been sent to Miss Universe pageant in 1995–1996, 2005–2020 and 2022.[8]

In February 8, 2023, the Miss Universe franchise in Indonesia was officially granted to a new organizing body with Poppy Capella as its national director and as its CEO and Communication Director,[9] [10] paving the way for the creation of the new Miss Universe Indonesia Organization under PT. Capella Swastika Karya, Inc.[11] [12] [13] Under the new organization, a separate, standalone pageant is now responsible for the selection of the future Miss Universe Indonesia titleholders from 2023 onwards.[14] [15] [16] The press launch of the pageants in Nusa Dua, Bali was attended by the Miss Universe 2022 R'Bonney Gabriel, 2nd runner-up and top 5 of Miss Universe 2022, Andreína Martínez and Gabriëla Dos Santos, respectively.[17] [18]

On August 12, 2023, the Miss Universe Organization officially terminated their franchise contract with PT. Capella Swastika Karya and Capella after a sexual abuse scandal which happened at the Miss Universe Indonesia 2023 event. However, Fabiënne Nicole Groeneveld would still represent Indonesia in Miss Universe 2023.[19]
