Thank you very much for your continued support and business.

Kosakai was founded in Nihonbashi in the early 1990s as a pharmaceutical wholesaler, but with the development of the food industry after World War II, we shifted our business to food additives as our main products, and now we are doing business with a wide range of customers in the food manufacturing industry, focusing on products related to the food industry.

We have been in business for more than 100 years, and I am the fourth president of the company. Although I am new president to the company, I am determined to devote myself to our business, valuing our history and our relationships with our customers, and placing first priority on earning the trust of our customers.

In addition, just as our business has transformed with the times, I would like to flexibly adapt to the changes of the times while continuing to carry on Japan's wonderful food culture that is safe and secure. I will also focus on creating a system that will enable our employees to take on new challenges to achieve this goal.

We recognize that it is our important mission to nurture high-quality employees who can serve as a bridge between the needs of our suppliers and the needs of our customers, with the cooperation and support of our suppliers. So that we can help further develop Japan's food culture into a better future while respecting the attention it is receiving from overseas.

As a bridge between our clients and customers, we aim to be needed by both parties, and we will continue to strive to provide qualified and innovative information and products related to food ingredients and additives, with an emphasis on safety and compliance, as a matter of course.

We look forward to your continued patronage and support.
