As the leading manufacturer in the field of natural seasonings, the Ariake Group has anticipated customer needs and strived to maintain and ensure “food safety” and “high quality” while working to expand existing businesses both within Japan and overseas and to actively develop new businesses.

Ariake Group has made major investments totaling around \20 billion over the past couple of years in order to expand the natural seasonings business throughout the world and has completed a “global six-pillar system” production and sales bases centered in Japan but also in the U.S., China, Taiwan, Belgium and France. This global six-pillar system has made it possible to create the optimal production system to ensure a stable supply of high-quality products and to meet all the needs of our many customers.

Although the business environment is truly severe due to the global financial crisis and the sluggish consumption impacted by this crisis, the Ariake Group is, under these difficult conditions, anticipating customer needs and more than ever responding to customer expectations in Japan and (further) developing efficient sales strategies at each of our overseas bases.
