I look forward to Takara taking one step forward
I have read every Takara Shuzo’s Green-ink Accounting Report and this report shows, in an easy-to-understand manner, that the company’s considerate attitude to the environment is properly reflected in its products. I believe that many readers will sense Takara’s dedication to environmental activities.
The report informs us about the present situation and future vision of Takara Shuzo. I would like the company to have vision and be conscientious and to report why the company implements environmental activities rather than what it has done. I would like the report to clearly specify different efforts from the previous year, what areas Takara Shuzo emphasizes, and what direction the company is heading in.
For closer communication with customers and society and to establish a solid confidential relationship, the company should identify which viewpoints it holds in common with stakeholders, and which viewpoints are different. Where there are differences, the company should endeavor to close the gap between the company and its stakeholders. I look forward to Takara successfully closing the gap in the future. |

Taking its first steps as a green-ink company
Thank you for your valuable opinions. We have issued our Green-ink Accounting Report since 1998. Since 2003, we have disclosed our social activities in our report. On taking our first steps as a green-ink company, we are presented with the opportunity to reflect deeply on what is lacking in the company right now and what should we do about it.
Takara Shuzo has a long history, dating back to 1842, and has contributed to the culinary culture of Kyoto and Japan. In making a leap forward to becoming a company that is an integral part of Japanese society and one that is pursuing a global market, Takara Shuzo is pursuing corporate activities that help it to fulfill social responsibilities of a high order, in response to requests by local communities and society. We will make every effort to retain the high evaluation society has given us by continuous communication with our stakeholders, not by providing information unilaterally. |
