"Become a person needed by society, as those needed by society can prosper"
Naoji Iwatani (1903-2005)
Our corporate philosophy, "Become a person needed by society, as those needed by society can prosper", represents the business philosophy of Naoji Iwatani(1903-2005), founder of the Iwatani Corporation.
Inspired by Darwin's theory of evolution, he has included in this philosophy the thought that both people and companies need to constantly strive to nurture and grow, as people do in rural societies, rather than act as people do as hunters.
In essence, "those needed by society" should value mutual cooperation and pursue the fulfillment of society's needs and the lives of those who live in society - Customer Satisfaction.
