Under the Group’s Seventh Medium-term Business Plan, the Group will accelerate its transformation into a high quality company in terms of all “three responsibilities” (“For our customers,” “For our employees and their families,” and “For society”) and will pivot towards new challenges for growth. The Group has defined four value chains (“VC”) as domains in which it will provide “Healthy Life Through Food.” By further expanding the mainstay “Spice VC” and by endeavoring to develop the “Functional Ingredients VC,” which includes vitamin and lactic acid bacterium, and the “Soybean VC” centered on tofu, as well as the “Value-Added Vegetable VC” as a new challenge, the Group will work to achieve growth in Japan and overseas through the creation of new value.
