Sustainability Basic Policy
The Showa Sangyo Group believes that in order to achieve our Group management philosophy of “contributing to healthy, rich, and varied meals,” it is our social mission and responsibility as a Grain Solution Company which handles diverse and numerous grains to protect the land and surrounding environment that produce grains, a source of food, and to maximize effective use such that no grain is wasted.
In order to fulfill this responsibility as a public institution in society, we aim to achieve both a sustainable society and continued improvement in corporate value for our Group, as we move forward with ESG management.
Along with these efforts in sustainability, our Group aims for coexistence with society through deeper engagement with all of our stakeholders.
Sustainability Promotion System
We have established a Sustainability Committee in which the President serves as Chairman and all of the persons in charge of each division serve as Vice Chairman. Under the Sustainability Committee, in addition to committees for six social issues our Group thinks are critical ((1) Provision of safe, reliable, high-quality products, (2) Fair corporate activities, (3) Respect for human rights, (4) Consideration for the environment, (5) Contribution to society, (6) Dialogue and in formation disclosure with stakeholders,) we have established a committee which handles (7) Risk management, which we have been working on. Furthermore, we will place a Safe Labor Promotion Committee as an expert subcommittee in the (7) Risk Management Committee, as we intend to move forward with ensuring of safety for laborers and formation of pleasant workplace environments.
Also, items decided by the Sustainability Committee are reported at Management Committee meetings and Board of Directors meetings to receive oversight from the Board of Directors.
