Sustainability

Since our founding in 1979, our group has upheld the management philosophy of “The spirit of the company is to put customers first.” With dormitory operations as our foundation, we have steadily expanded our business domains to include hotel operations and senior living services, achieving consistent growth. In response to the rapidly changing modern business environment and evolving values, we have placed sustainability at the core of our management. We continue to pursue innovation and challenges toward securing the future of the global environment and realizing a sustainable society.

We have long regarded addressing climate change as one of the most important social issues. Aiming to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, we have endorsed the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and are strengthening our efforts to address both risks and opportunities related to climate change.

In our efforts to promote gender equality, we are working to create a workplace environment where everyone can thrive regardless of gender. As of the end of March 2024, the percentage of women in managerial positions had reached 15.8%, in progress toward our goal of 20% by the end of March 2028.

Furthermore, in our student dormitories, we implement the RA (Resident Assistant) Program as a place of “learning and development,” encouraging communication among residents. Through this program, we aim to foster student participation in SDG-based activities and help them acquire skills and experiences that will be valuable in their future endeavors.

To further strengthen these initiatives and take new steps toward enhancing corporate value, we have formulated a long-term vision, KYORITSU Growth Vision “For The Next Future 3&3&3”, and a five-year medium-term management plan, Rise Up Plan 2028, to bring this vision to life.

By promoting each strategy and sincerely addressing social issues in the areas of “Environment,” “Society (People and Food),” and “Governance,” we will strive to grow into an indispensable enterprise for society, while pursuing mutual prosperity with our various stakeholders.
