Working with Suppliers

Basic Approach

The Kikkoman Group places great importance on compliance as well as our policy to not pursue profits by unfair or unjust means. Based on these values, we established business relations concerning quality, compliance, environmental-friendliness, and fair/free transactions. By doing so, we aim to strengthen the partnerships with our current and potential suppliers.
