| Company Presentation | |
| In 1909 we began selling AJI-NO-MOTO, the world’s first umami seasoning, and in the more than 90 years since then we have developed our business as we pursue mankind’s fundamental need for nourishment and common desire for well-being. While cultivating ideas in the world of food, we have developed a profound understanding of amino acids, and expanded their applications from foods to include aspects of health and medical treatment. We will continue to build on our achievements to date, using our technical and operational expertise to produce valued products that contribute positively to food, health, and the future of people around the world. | |
