Approach to sustainability toward the 2030 outcomes

The Ajinomoto Group has put forth being a solution-providing group of companies for food and health issues as our vision for 2030. To achieve this, we need to both help extend healthy life expectancy of one billion people and reduce our environmental impact by 50%.

The Ajinomoto Group (“the Group”) has grown by pursuing ASV (The Ajinomoto Group Creating Shared Value). ASV represents our unchanging commitment to help resolve social issues and create value through our business. This remains our fundamental management policy (ASV management).

The important actions that we will take

As global challenges around food and health become more diverse, the Ajinomoto Group aims to contribute to improve health and eating habits for people around the world through unlocking the power of amino acids.

We have a responsibility to contribute to the development of the local communities of more than 130 countries and regions where our products are sold, while respecting their diverse cultures and values and upholding human rights.

Our business relies on access to a stable supply of food resources, supported by a rich and abundant global environment. However, we recognize the need to reduce environmental impact across the value chain such as greenhouse gas emissions and plastic waste.

We are addressing these environmental and social challenges, and by working with local partners throughout our value chain, we will lead the change for a better world.

Our position and approach to sustainability

Work with business partners to create new value “with a consumer-oriented approach” and “across the value chain”
Value scientific approach and innovation
Respect the customs and culture of each country and region
Engage in dialogue and collaborate with all stakeholders

The Ajinomoto Group is working to reduce environmental impacts and regenerate the environment as well as to promote better health and life. We will accomplish this using innovation and value co-creation with various partners by focusing management resources on core businesses, combining the power of amino acids with our ability to create new value, and expanding empathy toward our purpose to resolve food and health issues. In turn, we will increase customer value and seek to realize both outcomes of helping extend the healthy life expectancy of one billion people and reducing our environmental impact by 50% by 2030
