MESSAGE
Greetings.
I am Tsunenari Yada, and I serve as CEO of our Company.
I believe that a company should support people and be supported by them so that they can grow and develop together.
Like all companies, we aim to increase sales and profits, but we cannot achieve it without people who generate them.
The greater the number of people working together, the better their ideas become, and the stronger we become as an organization and a company.
I want this company to be a place where people can enjoy working and growing together as they overcome challenges while sharing laughter and encouraging each other.
