I would like to extend my warmest wishes for the New Year.

As we enter this new year under clear winter skies, I hope each of you has welcomed it in good health and with a sense of peace. We offer our sincere congratulations to all.

Reflecting on the past year, 2025 has been notable for a range of significant changes on both the international and domestic fronts. The effects of climate change have made seasonal transitions less pronounced, leading to record-breaking heatwaves and severe winters across regions. Additionally, economic and political tensions have experienced both alleviation and resurgence worldwide.

In Japan, we witnessed a historic milestone with the election of the country’s first female prime minister, underscoring the growing recognition of social diversity and evolving values. Concurrently, the post-COVID-19 pandemic, alongside the influenza epidemic, has heightened awareness of health and safety, leading to notable shifts in consumer values and behaviors.

In response to these developments, Fordays has secured FSSC 22000 certification in addition to our existing GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) credentials. This achievement will serve as a vital foundation as we proceed with the full-scale construction of our second manufacturing plant.

By enhancing our focus on safety, quality control, and traceability, and by increasing transparency in our manufacturing processes, we are committed to building a system that cultivates unwavering trust and peace of mind for our valued customers.

In alignment with our mission of “creating people who change lives through their work,” we will continue to prioritize enhancing product value and developing prosperous communities as the dual pillars of our corporate activities.

As we move forward this year with “safety, assurance, and high quality” as our steadfast foundation, Fordays is dedicated to advancing our role as a company that contributes to health and happiness while adaptively responding to social changes.

We sincerely wish for a fruitful and hopeful year ahead for all.
