Yokohama’s corporate philosophy embraces all the above considerations under the banner of “Contributing to society.” Maintaining the critical link between this ideal and its fulfillment involves a sensitivity to changes in current trends in order to identify user needs of the future. In practical terms, it requires the development and use of ever more advanced technologies and production systems. Yokohama’s pursuit of excellence extends to the other business domains into which it has diversified, including engineering, construction, the marine and aerospace industries, and the sports and leisure field.

As important as market research, the latest technologies and the finest production systems are, it is important to remember that they are the creations of people. Behind every Yokohama product lies the spirit, the zeal, the knowledge, the skill and, above all, the shared vision of Yokohama people in “contributing to society.”
