Backbone of our management

In Suzuyo Group, we have a word "Tomoiki" (directly translated in English as "Symbiosis") which has been inherited to us and passed down generation after generation. The history of "Tomoiki" dates back to 1922 when Benkyo Shiio (1876~1971) generated an activity called the "Tomoiki Revolution", which basic spirit is as follows. "Cherish each individual first. Then upon the realization of the independence of each to live on their own, each can then generate "Tomoiki" with each other".

Adding contemporary understandings, our management backbone "Tomoiki" was completed as; "Through the process in which a company starts living on its own and each of its' employees likewise start living on their own, a mutual spiritual backbone is generated connecting us with our local community, our customers, our business partners and with each other."

This teaching which appears easy at one glance has, however, very strict aspects. For each individual, it demands the existence of a totally independent person and to grow further through trust, cooperation and friendly rivalry. Either on an individual level or a corporate level, only through true independence without being spoiled, "Tomoiki" with others can be generated. This strictness also is a part of the history of our self-innovation inherited since our foundation.

We will continue to aim to be a corporation that is trusted by society and by the people who make up society, with this spirit of "Tomoiki".
