Ajinomoto : Corporate Governance Policies issued

The Ajinomoto Group has passed down the commitment of its founding to improve people's nutrition through umami seasonings that make simple foods taste better. We have achieved growth consistently since our founding through initiatives that create both social and economic value through our businesses. We call these initiatives Ajinomoto Group Shared Values (ASV). Our goal is to achieve sustainable growth through the evolution of ASV by actively contributing to solutions for the issues that are faced by 21st-century society, most notably healthy hearts and bodies, food resources, and global sustainability, through our businesses.

Ajinomoto Co., Inc. recognizes that corporate governance represents one of the most important aspects of its management foundation for accelerating its ASV efforts and achieving its vision of becoming a genuine global specialty company. To this end, the entire Ajinomoto Group works as one under the Ajinomoto Group Principles to reinforce and enhance corporate governance through engagement and collaboration with stakeholders and through continual efforts in developing and properly implementing its internal control system.
