Corporate Divisions
From three divisions, we conduct R&D to meet diversifying market needs offering over 2,000 items from traditional natural ingredients to new ingredients that use cutting edge technology.
Nutrition Division
Creating new markets and contributing to society by exploring the scientific possibilities of natural ingredients.
Green tea catechins, water-soluble dietary fiber, L-theanine and other natural ingredients have physiological effects that help prevent lifestyle diseases and ease stress – two issues that need to be addressed in today’s modern lifestyles.
Together with consumers, we aim to create new markets by exploring the possibilities of these ingredients and developing them into commercial products.
For the future
We are working to improve people’s lifestyles worldwide. One way we are doing that is by donating iron-fortified rice to the Philippines, where iron deficiency is a serious issue. Our goal of ongoing research and product innovation is to improve the diets of people worldwide, now and in the future.
