Message
from the CEO

In an uncertain and rapidly changing business environment, Kanro has promoted management based on its corporate purpose, “We Sweeten the Future to Open Hearts,” and has responded to changes in consumer behavior and values due to changes in the external environment. At the same time, we have been improving production efficiency and rationalization, and implementing price revisions in response to soaring raw material and energy prices. As a result, performance in FY2024, the final year of the Medium-term Corporate Strategy 2024, far exceeded the plan’s targets, achieving record highs in both net sales and profits.

Under the recently formulated “Medium-term Corporate Strategy 2030,” we will continue to position gummies as a growth driver and expand our production capacity through the operation of a new gummy line scheduled for 2027, while further refining our research and development capabilities to provide high-value products. We will also accelerate the promotion of our global business to deliver the value of our gummies overseas, and aim to achieve our financial and non-financial targets for 2030 and increase our corporate value through two axes: investment for sustainable growth and further improvement of the profitability of our domestic business, which will serve as the source of this investment.

As we plan on persistently implementing each of our measures, one by one, to earn the ongoing encouragement from all our stakeholders, we ask that you continue your support in the future.

Tetsuya Murata
President and CEO, Kanro Inc.
