  • (Consumer Food Business in Japan and Overseas (Seasonings
    I Food Business I. Food Business 1 The Outlines of Food Business Ten years in the food products industry and business In 2009, the global economy was suffering a recession following the 2008 financial crisis(the Lehman Shock), but from that point onward, it recovered rather smoothly due to the rise of China and other emerging countries. During this period, informatization and globalization advanced and there was a huge movement towards consideration of issues such as the environment and human rights, as represented by the SDGs. Within this circumstance, Japan was facing the unprecedented situation of population decline and the aging of society. In addition to this, factors the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake had an impact and deflation continued for a time. From 2013, the economy began to improve, driven by Abenomics (a set of economic and monetary policies implemented by the Prime Minister Shinzo Abe), but sluggish personal consumption continued, meaning that the Japan food products market remained roughly level. Beside a succession of headwinds, the food products industry saw a rise in raw material prices, an increase in one and two-person households, shifts towards individualized diets and easy-to-cook meals, and stronger health-consciousness. In response to these trends, there was movement towards the creation of added value and overseas expansion. Under the leadership of President & CEO Masatoshi Ito (2009-2015), the Ajinomoto Group’s food products business adopted key principles such as“ Specialty” (providing value that is not found in other companies’ products),“ Open & Link” (actively using external resources through M&A, alliances, etc.), and“ expansion into adjacent domains” (leveraging brands and technology to develop in adjacent business areas), with the aim of digging deeper into domestic markets and achievement of rapid overseas business growth.
