Demand for food and in particular livestock is projected to expand with future global population growth and rising incomes from economic advances in developing nations. Against this backdrop, feed materials are significantly impacted by global trends in agricultural production and aquaculture resources. Japan depends on imports for the majority of its feed materials, so we are focused on the international growth in demand for food and the supply balance for raw materials. In Japan, we are now confronted with a range of challenges, such as the abolition of tariffs in line with multinational economic partnership agreements, an accelerating decline in the population, and a shortage of labor. Furthermore, consumers remain keenly conscious of food safety and a high degree of food safety and reliability will continue to be a priority.

To respond flexibly to this changing environment, our employees will work as one in putting our heads together, working tirelessly, and maintaining a close dialog with our customers to proactively approach the challenges ahead. Embodied in our corporate slogan, “Food links into the future,” is the wish to provide safe, reliable, and high-quality feed in its optimal form to customers and contribute to “ensuring the safety of food”. Going forward, we aim to continue contributing to growth in the consumption of the safe, attractive, and wonderful livestock and fish produce that our customers so passionately create while at the same time supporting the advancement of Japan’s food culture.

In May 2013, we gained acquisition of ISO22000 certification as the first compound feed company in Japan. From the standpoint that feed is also a food product, it is necessary to acquire IS022000 of the management system regarding food safety for a company responsible for a part of food culture. We contribute to "securing the safety of food products" while conducting the manufacture and sale of feed and related products safely, securely, and with high quality.
