President's Message

I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation to our investors for your support.

We at the Oenon Group are guided by our Corporate Group Philosophy in conducting our biotechnology-based business, which focuses on fermentation and other technologies. We place topmost importance on delivering safe and secure products to our customers, maintaining a combined customer- and profit-oriented focus throughout our operations. Specifically, we believe it is essential to fulfill our social responsibilities as a company that supports the infrastructure that underpins society and livelihoods. By doing so, we aim to ensure sound and sustainable growth over the medium to long term. Accordingly, we promote ESG management, which takes environmental, social and governance factors into consideration.

In 2024, we will celebrate our 100th anniversary of establishment. To mark this anniversary, we have formulated the Long-Term Vision 100, which defines our sustainable growth vision as a company. To fulfill this vision, we outlined Medium-Term Management Plan 2023. Despite the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have grown by making clear progress under our business strategies in each business segment. Underpinning our working styles as we move into a “new normal” era is our sangen shugi principle (genba, genjitsu, genbutsu). This idea, the “three reals philosophy,” is sometimes expressed in English as “the actual place, the actual situation and the actual goods.” Our actions will follow a cycle based on three principles: decide swiftly, act nimbly and engage in honest reflection. As a result, we aim to manage the Group with a sense of speed, responding flexibly to changes in our environment.

We ask for your ongoing support and encouragement of these endeavors.

March 2021
